Power Steering: General Description

The steering wheel has four spokes. In addition, all vehicles are equipped with SRS (Supplemental Restraint System).

The steering column in all vehicles has a shock absorber mechanism and a tilt steering mechanism.

The power steering is an integral rack and pinion type that combines the steering gear and linkage into one light-weight and compact assembly.

The steering system uses a vane oil pump with a fluid flow control system, so that steering effort varies with engine speed.
