Key Features

Detailed Description

Mando 15N0013 is a steering tie rod end engineered for vehicles that use a rack-and-wheel-housing steering linkage. As the steering system moves, the tie rod end helps transfer motion while maintaining the alignment relationship between the steering rack and the wheel assembly. Over time, wear in this component can contribute to steering play, vibration, and abnormal tire wear.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. The Mando New line focuses on aftermarket replacement parts for Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis vehicles, making 15N0013 a practical option when replacing a worn left steering tie rod end on a Kia Rondo, Kia Magentis, or Kia Optima.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive steering play
• Alignment drift after tie rod wear
• Uneven or rapid tread wear
• Steering vibration caused by looseness in the linkage
• Reduced steering precision on the left side
