Is it necessary to straighten the steering wheel when parking?
1 Answers
It is essential to straighten the steering wheel when parking. If the steering wheel is not straightened, the wheels will pull the steering tie rod and prevent it from returning to its original position. At the same time, the gears of the steering wheel and the rack of the steering tie rod will remain under stress. Over time, this can accelerate the aging or deformation of these components. If these parts age or deform, it may lead to vehicle deviation and uneven tire wear. The steering wheel is a wheel-shaped device used to control the direction of cars, ships, aircraft, etc. Its function is to convert the force applied by the driver on the edge of the steering wheel into torque and transmit it to the steering shaft. The steering wheel mainly consists of a skeleton, foam, and the corresponding installation clips or screw holes for the driver's airbag (DAB).
