Keep the rear wheel tracking straight with the Mevotech Supreme Suspension Trailing Arm CMS501268. This trailing arm locates the rear suspension and controls fore-and-aft wheel movement to help hold rear alignment, and it drops in at the rear left corner of the 2018-2020 Buick Regal Sportback and 2016-2025 Chevrolet Malibu as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications.
A worn trailing arm or its bushings can show up as clunking over the rear axle, rear-end alignment drift, or uneven tire wear. If a failed trailing arm is the cause, this replaces the original rear left unit. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine-level fitment.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What is a suspension trailing arm and what does it do?
A trailing arm links the rear wheel hub to the chassis, locating the suspension and controlling fore-and-aft wheel movement so the rear stays aligned and tracks properly under braking and acceleration.
Which vehicles does the CMS501268 fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2018-2020 Buick Regal Sportback and the 2016-2025 Chevrolet Malibu. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the exact engine-level fitment for your vehicle.
What position is this trailing arm for?
This unit is cataloged for the rear left position. Replace the arm that matches that corner on your vehicle.
What are the signs of a worn trailing arm?
Common signs include clunking over the rear axle, rear-end alignment drift, and uneven tire wear. Diagnose the cause first, since these symptoms can come from other suspension parts too.
How is this trailing arm built to resist wear?
It uses a stamped steel control arm with a filled-in hole/recess for durability, bushings with a solid, reinforced cross section for stiffness, and a protective surface treatment to help resist corrosion.
