My car is stationary, took it in to have air bags replaced, dealership calls and says that my rack and pinion needs to be replaced at a cost of $1,300. how long before this goes out completely or what do i do in this case? i can't afford it.
Leaking rack & pinion boots detected during oil change on 2/06/2017 at dealership.
The rack & pinion assembly has failed three times since owning the vehicle -- 8/17/2013 (53,031mi), 1/19/16 (87,263mi) and 10/12/16 (99,460mi).
The vehicle makes a straining sound, as if it were in first gear while driving. the steering makes a loud noise when turning in either direction. i had dealer check it and was told the hydraulic fluid pump needs to be replaced, fluid appears to be leaking.
Rack and pinion steering started leaking power steering fluid into the bellow that covers the inner tie rod ends. this car does not even have 50,000 miles on it. certainly the steering system should last longer than this.
During a routine state inspection, the shop mechanic said power steering fluid was leaking and he believed it to be the rack and pinion. over the next week, the steering wheel became abnormally difficult to maneuver .the vehicle was taken to the mechanic where they stated that there was a leak from the rack and pinion, which needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired. the manufacturer was notified. the failure mileage was 25,580. *tr
On sept. 18th,2012 i had the steering rack assembly replaced @ 35,808 mi. in my 2010 honda crv by freeman honda. i am now at (approx. 72,000 mi.) and it is leaking again and needs to be replaced. i think that freeman honda installed a defective steering rack. they are refusing to honor the work that they did.
Gears began to crunch and the car began to shake. slowed down at a light and lost the power steering. pulled over and the engine stalled. could not re-start for 10 minutes. engine then re-started, traveled approx. 10 meters and stalled. re-started again - no further problems. 2 similar occurrences, 2 months apart. for the first event, the car went off the road. on each occasion the dealership stated they had checked everything and there was nothing wrong with the car. took it for a second opinion. dealership had not checked recall 11-001 (january, 2011). they checked it, but again found no issue. *tr
6/15/2011 mileage 17,546 1st instance. power steering failed, due to fluid leak. entire steering rack was replaced. 3/12/2015 mileage 53,690 2nd instance. power steering failed, due to fluid leak. entire steering rack was replaced.
My 2010 crv sometimes doesn't start the first time. this happened more frequently over the last 6 months. what happens is when starting the car there will be a "click sound" but not the sound of the starter.....turn the key to the off position and try again and the car starts normally. always starts normally on the second try. what i heard was a clear buzzing sound coming right from the steering column, near the ignition switch when the key was turned to the start position. no sounds from the engine at all. the sound was like an electrical buzz. after turning the key on and off three times, then the car started normally with no buzzing coming from the steering column. in searching the web, there are other crvs that report the same thing--abnormal sound at first start and then perfectly normal starts on the second try. this is the third time i took my crv to honda dealer for the same problem. first time, battery was replaces. second time, relay was replaced. no problem fixed. *js
