Poor bearing lubrication. Solutions for a heavy car steering wheel include: 1. Replenishing hydraulic power steering fluid; 2. Replacing circuit fuses; 3. Replacing flat bearings and adding kingpin grease; 4. Increasing lubrication for the steering tie rod ball joints. Steering wheels are categorized into: single-spoke, dual-spoke, triple-spoke, and four-spoke designs. Their working principle involves transmitting torque to the rack and pinion mechanism, thereby pushing the wheels to turn left or right.
