This system is very important in a vehicle, as is the brake system, since this depends on the safety of the occupants.
The steering system of a car comprises a set of mechanisms whose mission is to guide your career in full operation according to the desire of the driver. This orientation is due to the front tires (or guidelines), which is the most common to find today (front-wheel drive).
This system is an important part of a vehicle, as is the brake system, since this depends on the safety of the occupants. Therefore, this mechanism must have certain characteristics or qualities in any case, for the driver to drive calmly and with the certainty that the car will be fine.
One such feature is security, which depends on the quality of the materials of this system and its reliability. Another is the smoothness, which is achieved through precise assembly, proper reduction and good greasing. Otherwise, the steering will be hard, either by badly inflated tires or by excessive weight on the steering wheels.
The precision continues, that is, the direction is neither hard nor smooth. The first situation, which could be due to poor set-up or small reduction, will eventually tire the driver; The second, possibly caused by a large reduction, will make the driver feel that he loses control of the vehicle.
The last two characteristics of the steering system is irreversibility and stability. Irreversibility is that the rudder forward movement to the wheels, without such return movement the wheel, particularly as self-crossing rough terrain. Stability, meanwhile, means that the vehicle does not deviate from its trajectory when it is traveling in a straight line and the driver releases the steering wheel.
