Does an Off-Center Steering Wheel Have Any Impact?
1 Answers
An off-center steering wheel does have impacts, which include: 1. When parking, if the steering wheel is not straightened, the wheels will pull the tie rods and prevent them from returning to their original position; 2. The gears of the steering wheel and the rack of the tie rods will remain under stress, accelerating aging or deformation, leading to vehicle deviation and uneven tire wear; 3. It can cause the shock-absorbing rubber in the suspension system to age, resulting in play at the connection points of the suspension's control arms and links; 4. It may lead to uneven tire stress, causing tire leaks or blowouts. The functions of the steering wheel are: 1. To control the direction of the vehicle, managing the steering wheels to drive straight or turn; 2. It can help diagnose vehicle faults.
