Loose or heavy steering, a clunk when turning or lost power steering fluid can be signs of a worn rack. If the rack is the cause, this unit replaces it. With the engine off, start by reading the fluid level in the reservoir, because a leaking hose or a weak pump can produce trouble that looks similar. One rack goes on each car, so this single listing covers it.
