Market analysis
Why does the Buick Encore GX strut cost more?
A used Buick Encore GX strut carries a median asking price of $101, which is 1% higher than the Dodge Charger at $100. Supply also plays a role: Dodge Charger has 4,689 priced listings versus 736 for Buick Encore GX, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.
The Dodge Charger average ($133) runs 33% above its median ($100), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.
Our guide covers 10 model years for the Dodge Charger (2015–2025) but only 6 for the Buick Encore GX (2020–2025), so the Dodge Charger data reflects a broader range of generations.
Only 59% of Dodge Charger strut listings include a posted price (4,689 of 7,995 observed) — the rest are "call for price," which usually signals negotiable or higher-than-average pricing.
At Grade B (good) condition, the Dodge Charger is 24% cheaper ($100 vs $132) — the gap narrows compared to the overall median difference.
Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used strut
- Check the shaft for pitting or rust — a pitted shaft will chew through the new seal and start leaking immediately.
- Look for oil weeping around the seal area. A light film is normal on older units; dripping means it's spent.
- Confirm whether the strut mount and spring are included, or if you'll need to transfer yours over.
- Match the part to your vehicle's suspension type (standard, sport, electronic/adaptive) — they're not interchangeable.
