Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm vehicle year, model, and steering configuration before installation. This part fits Chevrolet Trax outer positions only, and 2013-2014 applications require hydraulic steering. After replacement, perform a professional wheel alignment to restore steering geometry and tire wear characteristics. Verify thread direction, thread pitch, and end dimensions against the removed component before final assembly.

Quality Assurance

Delphi subjects steering components to extreme temperature and salt-spray testing and uses OE-level dimensional and material checks to support fit and performance consistency. The TA3162 is built to align with Delphi’s OE-based aftermarket steering standards.
