Steering column, checking for damage
Determining if steering column must be replaced
following an accident:
Visual check
- Check all steering column components for
damage.
Functional check
- Make sure steering column turns easily without
jerking.
- Make sure steering column can be adjusted for
height and reach.
- Check gap (dimension -A-) between slide and mounting bracket.
If dimension -A- is larger than 0.5 mm (0.20 in.), steering column is
damaged and must be replaced
