The steering column in your Ford car is the part that holds the steering wheel. It also has other parts like the ignition switch, turn signals, and light controls. The steering column is one of the most important parts of any car as it connects the steering wheel with the steering mechanism so it becomes impossible to drive a vehicle without a steering column.
As an oft-used component of the car, your steering column is prone to wear and tear over time. It can also end up accumulating dust and getting damaged over the years. Power steering columns will also start to leak hydraulic fluid when it wears out. Once you notice that your steering column is defective, it is imperative to get it replaced quickly to ensure your safety.
