Keep steering input moving from the linkage to the wheel with the Dorman - OE Solutions Tie Rod End 544-613, the front left outer unit for the 2003-2007 Cadillac CTS. This steering tie rod end directly replaces the original equipment tie rod on the listed application. It has also undergone an industry-leading evaluation process aimed at smooth, safe operation.

Trustworthy replacement: the assembly is designed to directly replace the original equipment on specific vehicle applications.
Durably designed: a factory-sealed, precision-forged housing resists future corrosion.
Reliably engineered: built to decrease the wear rate and support overall strength.
Trustworthy quality: backed by a team of professional engineers and quality control specialists in the United States.

A tie rod end is the pivoting joint at the outer end of the steering linkage. It connects to the steering knuckle and turns the wheel as you steer. Signs it may need replacing include play or looseness in the steering wheel, knocking or clunking when turning, wandering on the road, and uneven tire wear. These symptoms can have other causes, so inspect the steering and suspension before replacing parts, and have the wheel alignment checked after installation. For engine-specific details, see the "Vehicles it fits" section.
