2012 Ford Focus - Rack And Pinion Complete Unit

Ford Focus Rack and Pinion Unit

The rack and pinion steering unit on your Ford Focus converts the motion of the steering wheel to the wheels of your car. In many cases, the rack and pinion unit is also powered by the power steering pump to make the wheels of your Focus easier to turn. If the bearings and bushings of the rack and pinion steering unit wear out, it can cause a tight steering wheel, wheel shaking, or grinding noises when you turn. Low levels of power steering fluid, or power steering fluid leaks from the rack and pinion in your Focus, can also cause the vehicle to be more difficult to steer and handle. Check the power steering fluid reservoir and look for any leaks near the rack and pinion before making your repairs. If your Ford Focus needs a replacement rack and pinion unit, O'Reilly Auto Parts carries replacement steering parts, including power steering pumps, rack and pinion units, hoses, and fluid to keep your Focus driving like new.
