Is a slight right deviation of the steering wheel normal_58 Auto A slight right deviation of the steering wheel is normal. Generally, minor right deviations can be ignored due to road design considerations. Car steering wheels are designed with approximately 5% of free play, and deviations within this range are considered normal. If the deviation is severe, the first step is to check whether the tire pressure on both sides is balanced, as well as the wear condition of the vehicle's tires. It could also indicate issues with the front wheel camber or the steering system. The steering wheel is a wheel-shaped device used to control the direction of 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. It mainly consists of a skeleton, foam, and corresponding installation clips or screw holes for the driver's airbag (DAB).
