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.

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.

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.

  • 18,000 miles
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.
