PHILTOP Control Arms Kit for Caliber/Patriot/Compass 2007-2010

In this review the PHILTOP 6pcs Control Arms Kit is evaluated for owners of Dodge Caliber (2007-2010), Jeep Patriot (2007-2009) and Jeep Compass (2007-2009). The bottom line: the kit is best for a DIY mechanic or independent shop looking for a full rear control-arm refresh, because it bundles the needed upper and lower lateral arms and toe arms with an anti-corrosion finish that aims to extend service life. Installation is straightforward when fitment matches, and the kit's quality and ease of installation are the most compelling reasons to consider it.

Key Features

• Complete rear kit: Includes 2x Rear Upper Lateral Arms (K641281), 2x Rear Lower Control Arms (MS251007) and 2x Rear Lower Rearward Lateral Toe Arms (K641226) so you get the major rear control-arm components in one purchase.
• Vehicle compatibility: Built to fit Caliber 2007-2010, Patriot 2007-2009 and Compass 2007-2009, which simplifies parts selection for those model years.
• Anti-corrosion coating: Polishing and an environmentally friendly coating are applied to resist rust and help prolong the service life of each arm.
• Precision tolerances: Manufactured to consistent dimensions that make installation easier and help maintain steering alignment when installed correctly.
• PHILTOP support: The manufacturer encourages buyers to recheck year/make/model compatibility and offers fitment confirmation resources before purchase.

Who It's For

This kit is aimed at owners of the specified models who need a coordinated rear suspension rebuild without hunting for individual parts. A competent DIYer or an independent repair shop will appreciate receiving a matched set that covers upper and lower lateral arms plus rear toe arms.

It is not ideal for vehicles outside the listed model years or for drivers who require OE-branded parts from a dealership; also buyers who prefer to replace only a single worn component may find the full kit more than they need.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Good value for a complete rear control-arm refresh with all matching components included.
• Anti-corrosion polish and coating provide added longevity compared with bare metal parts.
• Customers report overall ease of installation and functional performance when fitment is correct.

Cons

• Fitment feedback is mixed, so it requires careful vehicle verification before purchase.
• One report noted issues with bushings, indicating occasional variability in component finish or fit.
