5 Common Power Steering Problems

posted on
In order to reduce the need for effort from the driver to steer the vehicle, engines use a system referred to as “power steering.” This is a hydraulic system that uses power steering fluid to build pressure that is used to change the direction of the wheels. This means that you don’t need to arm wrestle with your steering wheel when trying to take a turn.   When your car’s power steering system begins to fail — or the fluid needs to be replaced — it can make it much harder to control arou...

Here are some tips on how to get the most life out of a set of tires:   Tire Rotations — No vehicle has 50/50 weight distribution from front to rear, and front tires see a different set of stresses from braking and cornering.
