Steering: Description and Operation

GENERAL DESCRIPTION





The steering wheel has four spokes. All vehicles are equipped with Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). The steering column has a shock absorber mechanism and a tilt steering mechanism.

The power steering is an integral rack and pinion type that combines the steering gear and linkage into one light-weight and compact assembly. The steering system uses a vane oil pump with a fluid flow control system, so that steering effort varies with engine speed.
