Steering Wheel Inspection
Check the steering wheel for specified freeplay and smooth operation at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart.
-
Position the vehicle on level ground.
-
Lightly turn the steering wheel left and right.
-
There should be 20-25 mm (0.8"-1.0") of freeplay.
-
If there is excessive freeplay or strange noises, or the steering feels rough or “catchy,” have the steering system inspected by an authorized dealer.
