What Causes a Loose Steering Wheel?
1 Answers
The reasons for a loose steering wheel are: 1. Damage to the outer steering gear or an over-tightened free gap adjustment bolt of the steering gear; 2. Incorrect camber or toe-in; 3. Worn suspension bushings, causing severe wear on the inner side of the tires. The function of the steering wheel is to convert the force applied by the driver to the edge of the steering wheel into torque and transmit it to the steering shaft. Precautions for using the steering wheel include: 1. Do not turn the steering wheel too forcefully or make sudden movements; avoid turning the steering wheel when the vehicle is stationary; 2. When driving on rough roads, hold the steering wheel firmly with both hands to prevent loss of control and potential accidents; 3. Reduce speed when turning; 4. Gradually turn the steering wheel according to the curvature of the bend when entering a curve.
