I am not a mechanic but I have owned a lot of problematic cars. I have come to find out that a car can pull to the right while braking due to various reasons. Such as, a caliper that gets stuck and does not work properly, uneven brake wear--get brakes pads, rotors, calipers checked-- an outter tire rod may be worn--unbalanced or uneven wear on tires--or it could be your alignment.All or one of these can contribute to this. Take it to a mechanic and get it checked to be definitely sure.
Check for vac. leaks, possibly the vac hose on the cruise switch at the brake pedal.
Excessive noise, shudder in the steering wheel when turning it in either or both directions, leaks. IF YOU CAN TURN YOUR WHEEL LEFT TO RIGHT WITH OUT IT BINDING AND THERE ARE NO LEAKS AT THE RACK THEN MORE THAN LIKELY YOU RACK AND PINION ARE OK
Your steering wheel is most likely locked, you should try to get your steering wheel in a different position, and it will start right up. My car used to do it all the time, it was such a pain. Good luck.
4 bolts are romoved from the backsode of the steering wheel. If airbag equipped remove airbag fuse first. Then remove airbag/ horn/ center assembly. Remove large nut from center of wheel, then pull wheel with steering wheel puller.
my steering wheel is locked my tires are straight and everything and it refuses to unlock what do i do?
your car is probably trashy
Remove you foot from the accelerator, hang on to the steering wheel, do not apply the brakes, do not turn the steering wheel, and pray. If your car is in a "hydroplane", you should: -Ease off the accelerator
Worn bushes or warped brake rotor. Replace faulty item.
no
If you are in a rear-wheel skid, you must release your brakes and turn your steering wheel __________A. into the direction of the skid.B. opposite direction of the skid.C. straight.
If the steering wheel shakes, but to car doesn't, when applying brakes - your front rotors are warped (if you have disc brakes)...if you have drum brakes, the drum could be cracked or the pads worn unevenly If the whole car shakes, and the steering wheel only seems to react to that, when applying brakes - see above statement, but apply to the rear end. If the whole car shakes, including the steering wheel - all four corners are bad, and you're an accident looking for a place to happen soon. In any case, go to your nearest service center ASAP.
They stop your car. They are round discs that are kind of attached to the wheels and the pads grip the rotors when you apply the brakes to slow down the car. When a rotor becomes warped due to excessive heat, the steering wheel will shake when you apply the brakes.
bad front brakes.
high pitched squeal from left front wheel does not stop when I apply the brakes. It will stop when I turn the steering wheel even a little bit but returns when I straighten out again
with your right foot apply pressure to the rightmost pedal under the steering wheel

You can replace a steering wheel cover by first removing the old steering wheel. Once complete, wash and dry clean the steering wheel and then apply your new steering wheel cover.
