What to Do When the Steering Gear of Ford Mondeo Zhisheng Gets Stuck?
2 Answers
Ford Mondeo Zhisheng steering gear getting stuck requires inspection and repair at a service station. The causes of sticking are: faults in the lower control arm ball joint, steering gear tie rod ball joint, and shock absorber mount. The steering gear is a machine that assists the driver in applying force while turning the steering wheel, reducing the effort required by the driver during steering, making driving easier and more convenient. The Ford Mondeo is a mid-size sedan sold by Ford Motor Company in multiple markets worldwide. In terms of body dimensions, the Ford Mondeo measures 4873mm in length, 1852mm in width, and 1470mm in height.
That time I drove my Mondeo Zhisheng for an outing, the steering wheel suddenly got stuck stiff, feeling like something was blocking it when turning, almost hitting the guardrail! I quickly pulled over and later went to the repair shop. The mechanic checked and said the steering gear was leaking oil, causing the fluid level to be too low, leading to frequent sticking issues, and it was necessary to replace the oil and seals. I realized that I should pay attention to the color changes of the power steering fluid in daily use. If steering becomes difficult, don’t hesitate—get it checked immediately. Remember, delaying repairs could cause the steering pump to burn out, making repairs more expensive and dangerous. Adding a steering fluid check during regular maintenance is simple and can save a lot of hassle.
