Dealer said they heated to unfreeze the rear toe adjusting bolt, but it did not work.

What is the cheapest solution?

Hi
I would try to cut the bolt with a thin blade, without damaging the control arm. Then insert a new bolt. If that does not work you need to destroy the control arm and get a new one.
Regards, Bruno

Just realized: you write about the rear. I'd replace the link including the frozen bolts (on both sides) after having used the cutting wheel to get them off.
