HOW DO I KNOW WHEN IT’S TIME TO REPLACE THE STEERING RACK?

Commonly reported symptoms of steering rack failure include:

1. Vibration: loose feeling due to excessive play

2. Loud noises: clunking sounds while turning or driving over speed bumps

3. Wandering: the wheel requires frequent adjustment to drive straight down the road

4. Fluid leaks: worn out or deformed seals may cause the steering rack to leak hydraulic fluid from the pinion tower or bellows

5. Lack of assist: the wheel turns easily in one direction, but with difficulty in the opposite direction. The steering wheel may also have trouble returning to center. In this scenario, intermittent loss of power steering is possible and may be accompanied by a grinding sound.
