The main road through Peterlee is the A19, which travels north towards Newcastle and 17 miles south to Stockton-on-Tees. The nearest motorway is the A1(M), about thirty minutes away. The town has a couple of electric car charging stations, one on Easington Way and the other on Yoden Way (also the location of the bus station). Arriva and Go North East operate several bus routes in Peterlee, making it easy to travel while your car is out of action.
Rack and pinion steering relies on a gear set to convert the turning movement of the steering wheel into the motion required to turn the wheels. When this system is combined with power steering, the configuration changes slightly to include a cylinder with a piston in the middle.
Check out this guide for a detailed explanation of how your a car's steering system works.
The three top reasons for a steering rack repair or replacement are cracked rubber lines and hoses, loose connections, and failed seals between the steering column and rack and pinion.
Common signs of a problem include:
- Leaking power steering fluid
- Loose or inconsistent steering
- Vibrating steering wheel
- Wheels not returning to the centre
- Instability on the motorway
