How to Determine if the Steering Wheel is Misaligned?
1 Answers
To determine if the steering wheel is misaligned, follow these steps: 1. Ensure that the tire pressure in all four tires is exactly the same. 2. On a straight and level road, when the vehicle is moving in a straight line, the steering wheel should be centered, and the vehicle should not pull to either side. If this is the case, the car is functioning normally. 3. If the vehicle does not pull to either side on a straight road but the steering wheel is not centered, this issue is unrelated to wheel alignment. Simply adjust the length of the left and right tie rods on the steering gear to resolve it. 4. If the vehicle pulls to one side while driving on a straight road, requiring the driver to turn the steering wheel to one side to correct the misalignment, this indicates a problem with the wheel alignment.
