The Buick LaCrosse Control Arm is the crucial connection between each of the car's front wheels and the sedan's frame. This allows the suspension to keep the tires planted and smooth out bumps. Mounted with rubber bushings at the end of the chassis and a ball joint at the knuckle, each Control Arm pivots up and down as springs and struts react to potholes, guiding the wheel but not allowing it to move forward or backward. Earlier LaCrosse generations applied stamped steel Control Arm pieces that were strong but susceptible to corrosion. Severe rust could weaken them or lock the bushings in place. Later years on the same model moved to cast iron or lightweight cast aluminum versions, which gained additional strength and lost weight, resulting in a more comfortable ride and better fuel economy. They also resist rust much better than steel. Regardless of material, every Control Arm on a Buick bears the load from shocks, coil or torsion springs, and sway bars. Damage from curbs or collisions can bend the arm, and if a Control Arm bends, alignment suffers. Complete replacement is wiser than only swapping worn bushings or ball joints. Reliable operation of these arms means that the Buick LaCrosse can corner predictably and absorb impacts with confidence.
