The price depends on your vehicle and how serious the damage is.

Yes, steering racks can often be repaired if the damage isn’t too severe. But sometimes, replacing the steering rack might be cheaper in the long run.

Not really. Driving with a damaged steering rack is risky and can lead to steering problems or accidents. It’s best to get it fixed as soon as you can.

Damage can happen due to wear and tear, dirt, poor maintenance, or accidents.

Watch out for hard steering, strange noises when you turn, fluid leaks, loose steering, and uneven tyre wear.
