• Corrosion or wear in the steering rack housing
• Steering response issues tied to a failing rack and pinion assembly

Installation Notes

Verify vehicle fitment by year, make, and model before installation. Transfer or inspect related steering components as needed, and follow the included instruction sheet during replacement. Because this assembly includes inner tie rods but does not include outer tie rods, mounting brackets, or gasket/seal components, confirm the condition of the remaining steering hardware before reassembly.

Quality Assurance

Each CARDONE remanufactured rack and pinion assembly is processed with renewed sealing components, specialized lubricant, and a factory test drive that checks performance under demanding conditions. The remanufacturing process also reduces energy and raw material use compared with producing a new part, while maintaining OE-style fit for the listed Hyundai Accent, Kia Rio, and Dodge Attitude applications.
