The steering gear is one of the most important parts of the steering system. The system works to distribute power to the wheels, which sets the car in motion.

When the steering gearbox system is failing, it starts showing some signs that need to be fixed quickly. For instance, worn out components of the steering make the vehicle noisy when steering, which may be caused by a faulty gear. The other indicator is a fluid leak from the steering system. The system is hydraulically operated and a leakage means that too much loss of the fluid may render the system damaged.
