Where the Kia Seltos control arm is listed
We found priced Kia Seltos control arm listings at 82 salvage yards across 18 states. California supplies the most, with 117 listings (28% of the total) from 12 yards. Location matters: yards in California ask a median $75, while Michigan yards ask $200, 167% more for the same part. Shipping usually costs less than that gap for smaller parts, so it can pay to buy out of state.

Market analysis
How much does a used Kia Seltos control arm cost?
Asking prices for a used Kia Seltos control arm are unusually spread out: the top listing asks about 9 times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 10% premium over grade-B stock, with grade-A medians at $110.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, RH, lists at a $85 median, while LH commands $120, a 41% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.
Model year matters too: 2024 units carry the lowest median at $100, while 2022 tops the table at $125. Parts from 2021–2025 are interchangeable, so if the 2024 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 5 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Kia Seltos sits 44% below the Toyota 4Runner ($193), 39% below the Mercedes S Class ($180), and 9% above the Mercedes E Class ($100) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
Buying a used control arm: what to check
- Inspect ball joint boot and stud play: Check for torn rubber dust boots, cracked grease seals, or lateral movement in the ball joint stud when flexed with a pry bar.
- Check rubber bushing integrity: Look for dry-rotted, torn, or fluid-leaking hydraulic suspension bushings where the arm mounts to the subframe.
- Verify structural straightness against factory specs: Compare the arm against original dimensions to spot subtle bends caused by curb strikes or suspension impacts.
- Confirm ball joint attachment design: Determine whether the arm uses a bolt-on ball joint or an integrated press-fit socket to anticipate future maintenance needs.
- Torque bushing bolts at ride height only: Tightening subframe pivot bolts while the vehicle is raised on jacks twists rubber bushings and causes premature tearing.
