Upper steering mechanism repair

What is the upper steering mechanism?

The upper steering mechanism (also known as the steering column) is the part of the steering system that transfers the driver’s movement from the steering wheel to the steering gear. It consists of mechanical links, shafts, joints, and sometimes electrical components.

Function of the system

It connects the steering wheel to the steering box and transmits movement precisely. It may include steering angle sensors, collapsible safety shafts, and bearings. Faults in this system can result in poor control and safety risks.
