Help firm up front-suspension response with the Dorman control arm (526-225) — a direct replacement for the original front left lower assembly on the 2016-2020 Ford Fusion.

If a worn original is behind clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, or uneven front tire wear, this 2016-2020 Ford Fusion lower control arm replaces it. Reach for this 2016-2020 Ford Fusion control arm replacement when the original assembly is worn.

Where does the 526-225 install on my 2016-2020 Ford Fusion?
It installs in the front left lower position on the 2016-2020 Ford Fusion, directly replacing the original control arm and ball joint on that corner.
Does this control arm include the ball joint and bushings?
Yes. The ball joint and bushings come pre-installed, so you can replace the whole unit in a single step rather than pressing in separate components.
What vehicles does the Dorman 526-225 fit?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2016-2020 Ford Fusion (front left lower). See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific fitment details.
What are the signs this control arm may need replacing?
Clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven front tire wear can signal a worn control arm or ball joint. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
Do I need to replace the other side too?
This part covers only the front left lower position; the right side is a separate part. Replacing worn suspension parts in pairs can help keep handling balanced.
