Market analysis
Why does the Volkswagen Tiguan control arm cost more?
A used Volkswagen Tiguan control arm carries a median asking price of $100, which is 25% higher than the Dodge Charger at $75. Supply also plays a role: Dodge Charger has 4,589 priced listings versus 309 for Volkswagen Tiguan, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.
The Dodge Charger average ($104) runs 39% above its median ($75), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.
Our guide covers 8 model years for the Dodge Charger (2015–2025) but only 4 for the Volkswagen Tiguan (2017–2025), so the Dodge Charger data reflects a broader range of generations.
Only 65% of Dodge Charger control arm listings include a posted price (4,589 of 7,085 observed) — the rest are "call for price," which usually signals negotiable or higher-than-average pricing.
The Volkswagen Tiguan control arm is interchangeable across 17 model years versus just 13 for the Dodge Charger — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.
At Grade A (excellent) condition, the Dodge Charger is 43% cheaper ($75 vs $132) — the gap widens compared to the overall median difference.
Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used control arm
- Inspect the arm for subtle bends, hairline cracks, or deep rust scale, comparing geometry carefully against your original unit.
- Examine the rubber bushings for dry rot, tearing, or separation from the metal casing, as worn bushings require pressing out before installation.
- Check integrated ball joints for boot tears and axial play; if non-replaceable, factor in the cost of a unit with a fresh ball joint.
- Verify material type (cast iron, stamped steel, or aluminum) and sway bar link mounting location, which can vary across sub-models and suspension packages.
