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.

Only 59% of Dodge Charger strut listings include a posted price (4,697 of 7,998 observed) — the rest are "call for price," which usually signals negotiable or higher-than-average pricing.

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.
