Steering Repair

Safe, smooth steering is essential to keeping your vehicle under control — especially on Oregon’s winding roads. At Rob’s Automotive Repair in Clackamas, Oregon, our ASE-certified technicians specialize in steering repair and power steering service for all makes and models, including Subaru, Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, Toyota, and European vehicles.

Whether your steering feels stiff, loose, or unresponsive, our team can quickly diagnose the issue and restore your vehicle’s precision and safety.

Why Steering System Maintenance Matters

Your steering system allows you to direct your vehicle safely while maintaining road control. Most modern vehicles use power steering — either hydraulic or electric — to make turning easier and more responsive.

  • Hydraulic power steering systems rely on pressurized power steering fluid to assist movement.
  • Electric power steering systems use motors and sensors to adjust steering input automatically.

Over time, components like your rack and pinionpower steering pump, or steering box can wear out, leading to leaks, vibration, or difficult steering. Preventative service — like a power steering fluid exchange — helps extend system life and prevent costly breakdowns.

Common Steering Problems and Symptoms

If you notice any of the following issues while driving, it’s time to have your steering system inspected:

  • Difficulty turning the wheel or excessive steering effort
  • Vibrations or shaking in the steering wheel
  • Grinding, whining, or screeching noises when turning
  • Vehicle pulling to one side while driving
  • Leaking power steering fluid under your car
  • Loose or overly stiff steering wheel
  • Steering wheel slipping during turns

Even minor steering changes can indicate a developing problem, and catching it early can prevent major repairs down the road.
