Hitachi Astemo Rack and Pinion Assembly P/N:PSG0024
Replace a leaking or worn 2011 Nissan Maxima rack and pinion with the actual OE part: the Hitachi Astemo Rack and Pinion PSG0023, supplied new. It fits the 2009-2014 Nissan Maxima (engine: All), and each vehicle uses one.
This hydraulic rack turns the steering wheel's rotation into the side-to-side movement that steers the wheels through the tie rods. It uses fluid pressure to help reduce steering effort.
Signs a Nissan Maxima rack and pinion may need replacing include power steering fluid leaking at the rack, extra play in the steering wheel, wandering on the road, and clunks when turning. Other steering and suspension parts can cause these too, so diagnose the cause first. Have the wheel alignment checked after installation, whether you're fitting a 2010 Maxima rack and pinion or one for another listed year.
