How Long Is the Warranty for a Steering Gear Replaced at a 4S Shop?
1 Answers
4S shops typically provide a warranty of 3 years or 60,000 kilometers for a replaced steering gear. Steering Gear: Also known as the steering box, it is the most critical component for a car's steering function and an essential guarantee for driving safety, featuring a precise internal structure. Below are some maintenance tips for the car's steering gear: 1. Driving on uneven roads: When driving on rough or uneven surfaces, slow down to reduce the load on the steering gear. 2. Inspection: Regularly check the protective covers on both sides of the steering gear and the condition of the protective cover connecting the upper part of the steering gear to the universal cross joint. Damaged covers are the primary cause of early wear and damage to the steering gear. 3. Dust covers: Once the covers are damaged, water, dust, and sand can enter the steering gear, disrupting the lubrication film on the gear rack and causing internal rust or abnormal wear. If the internal water and sand are not promptly removed, the steering gear may quickly become irreparable. Therefore, inspect the dust covers at least once a month. If any damage is found, replace them immediately and conduct a thorough inspection and maintenance of the steering gear before replacement.
