How to Straighten a Misaligned Steering Wheel?

[AshleyRose]

To straighten a misaligned steering wheel, first turn the car's steering wheel all the way to the right to expose the rear of the left front wheel. Then, use a wrench to loosen the fixing nut and rotate the left tie rod clockwise. After adjusting the left front wheel, proceed to adjust the right front wheel in the opposite direction. The steering wheel is a wheel-shaped device used to control the direction of vehicles such as cars, ships, and airplanes. Its function is to convert the force applied by the driver on the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft. The steering wheel mainly consists of a skeleton, foam, and mounting clips or screw holes corresponding to the driver's airbag (DAB). Typically, the steering wheel is connected to the steering shaft via splines, and its primary function is to transform the driver's applied force into torque for the steering shaft.
