Common Steering Issues Addressed by This Rack and Pinion Assembly

  • Hard steering during initial minutes of driving, often referred to as "morning sickness"
  • Power steering pump whining caused by air in the system after rack replacement

  • Leaking steering fluid from worn seals or hose ports

Installation Notes and Tips
