Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm P/N:522-293
Help keep the rear wheel properly located with this Dorman control arm, part number 520-293, a rear lower arm precision-engineered and tested as a direct replacement for the original equipment. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2011-2014 Hyundai Sonata, 2011-2015 Kia Optima and 2010-2015 Hyundai Tucson. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
A control arm links the wheel assembly to the chassis, letting the wheel travel up and down with the suspension while helping hold it in position. When the original rear lower arm is bent, worn or damaged, this Dorman unit is designed to take its place.
Signs a rear lower control arm may need replacing include clunking or knocking from the rear over bumps, vague or wandering handling, and uneven tire wear. Because other suspension parts can cause similar symptoms, inspect the system before replacing. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners and whether the originals may be reused, and have the wheel alignment checked after installation.
