Rack & Pinion Steering Systems: Smooth and Responsive Handling

At Total Automotive, we understand the critical role that a reliable steering system plays in your vehicle’s performance and safety. Our expert technicians specialize in diagnosing and repairing all types of rack and pinion steering systems.

What is Rack & Pinion Steering?

Rack and pinion steering is a common type of steering system found in most modern vehicles. It converts rotational motion from the steering wheel into linear motion, which moves the wheels left or right.

Common Rack & Pinion Problems:

  • Power Steering Fluid Leaks: Leaks can cause loss of power steering assistance, making steering difficult, especially at low speeds.
  • Rack & Pinion Wear and Tear: Over time, the rack and pinion can wear down, resulting in loose steering, knocking noises, and difficulty turning.
  • Boot Tears: Torn boots allow contaminants to enter the rack and pinion, causing premature wear and damage.
  • Internal Problems: Internal components within the rack and pinion can fail, leading to a loss of steering control.
