Steering lock refers to a security feature in vehicles where the steering wheel becomes immobilized when the car is turned off and the wheel is turned. This occurs because the gear latch inside the steering gear locks, preventing the steering wheel from rotating. Simultaneously, the car key cannot be turned either, serving as an anti-theft measure that enhances vehicle security to some extent. Precautions for using the steering wheel: 1. When experiencing resistance in steering adjustment, apply lubricating oil to the steering gear for smoother operation; 2. Replace steering gear oil regularly to maintain optimal performance; 3. Always adjust the steering wheel to a comfortable position while driving to improve driving comfort.
