When turning right, even slightly, the steering wheel wants to turn all the way without returning. Also, it feels like the left (maybe both) tires are dragging a little with a slight wobble when close or at hard right. Turning left is normal except when hard left the wheel wants to stay. 2003 toyota rav4, 214,000, AT
Well with that kind of mileage I would start by jacking the car up as in my video. How to check out your own car's suspension system scotty. Check to see if ball joints are wearing our tie rods control arm bushings things like that. Now. It could be as bad as the power steering rack is going out and it's sticking going one way or the other, but check for the more obvious worn things first
@scottykilmer hot damn! The control arm nut was loose enough for me to rock it back and forth against the cotter pin. More minor issues, but that was a major improvement. Thank you s
- Upon further inspection, i found my driver's side wheel turns farther, in both directions, than the passengers side. Thoughts? 2003 Toyota rav4, 215,000 miles with AT. Thank you!
@danno12 This is additional information for your original topic. Please keep all information about a car problem together so we don't have to go hunting all over the board for it. Also, posting multiple topics about the same problem is against forum rules. Thank you. (Topics merged.)
Wasn't the same problem. Just because it's in the front end doesn't mean it's the same problem. That's like saying a bent rim and a bad strut are the same problem.
@danno12 the way you wrote it, I suppose it belongs here.
