Tie Rod Ends Video

Tie rods are an important part of your vehicle’s steering system. They connect the steering rack to the front wheels and help move the tires as you turn the steering wheel.

There are inner and outer tie rod ends that work together to control wheel movement. The outer tie rod also plays a role in setting your vehicle’s alignment.

Over time, tie rods can wear out. Common signs of a problem may include uneven tire wear, a loose or wandering steering feel, or a misaligned front end. In some cases, you may also hear unusual noises when turning. These symptoms can have more than one cause, so proper testing is important.

At Maxcare Auto Centers in Chicago, IL we can help inspect your steering system. We may begin with an evaluation as part of our auto diagnostics service and check related components within the steering repair system. Addressing steering concerns early can help maintain proper control and tire wear.

If your steering system or tie rods need to be inspected, call 773-666-0085 today.
