What are the Issues Found in Failed Rack and Pinion Steering of Car

Description:

The modern steering system is a rack and pinion steering system. The gearbox or the steering rack is present at the center. It is considered as the heart of the steering system as it plays a key role in making the turns smooth and efficient. The ability to steer the vehicle is compromised, when the steering rack breaks. It can be extremely dangerous to drive a vehicle with a broken steering rack. High underhood temperature is the main cause of steering rack failure. Check the steering and suspension components straight away to avoid catastrophic accidents due to a broken steering rack. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Rack and pinion steering convert the circular
motion of the steering wheel into linear motion.
3
For running the wheels smoothly, rack and pinion
steering are using a gear-set.
4
