Steering wheel malfunctions give many signals before the system fails completely. There are some steering wheel problems that you must always watch out for.

<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. You can\u2019t turn the wheel:<\/b> If you have a power steering system, and you have difficulty turning your wheel, then this could mean that the system has a problem. Check the fluid reservoir and fill it up if it is empty. If it has gone down again the next time you check, then search the car for any signs of fluid leakage. Leaks can be in the hoses, steering wheel or pumps.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Your steering wheel is vibrating:<\/b> Steering wheel vibration can indicate a serious problem with the steering wheel. Contaminants in the systems can sometimes cause the steering wheel to shake when the wheel is angled in one direction. Also, damaged rims or worn suspension components could be possible culprits.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Your steering wheel is loose:<\/b> A loose steering wheel is normally caused by worn steering racks or defected inner rims.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Your steering wheel makes a grinding or screeching noise:<\/b> This is yet another red flag of a steering wheel problem. The screeching is often caused by a worn-out steering belt.This is the belt that connects the power steering pump to the engine. The grinding noise could also be a cause of low-power steering levels.<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Your steering fluid is discolored:<\/b> This indicates that air or water has gotten into the system and the components are not being lubricated properly.<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. Your car pulls to one side:<\/b> This problem too is typical of a worn out steering gear equipment. Steering gear malfunctions are mostly caused by lack of steering wheel fluid!<\/span><\/li>\n
  7. Your steering wheel system constantly feels stiff:<\/b> This is one of the problems that can\u2019t be solved by checking fluid levels. They usually indicate a failure in the electric power steering system and it usually takes a scan tool to diagnose the car.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
