Typical Signs of Steering Issues
Familiarizing yourself with the indicators of potential steering issues can have a significant impact. Early problem detection can be the decisive factor between minor repairs and critical steering component failures while driving. You should watch for signs of steering issues and not hesitate to bring your vehicle in for inspection when you notice them. Here are some of those signs:
Unusual Noises
Unusual high-pitched noises when steering and/or when turning your vehicle on, can indicate problems with the power steering system. This could be caused by a number of things, from a failing rack and pinion, worn out tie rod ends, pitman arms, center link, idler arms to a power steering pump belt.
Vibrations in the Steering Wheel
Vibrations or shaking felt in the steering wheel, potentially signal alignment or tire issues. Such vibrations or shaking, especially at higher speeds, can compromise driving comfort and safety, necessitating a prompt inspection to pinpoint the underlying causes.
Leaking Power Steering Fluid
Puddles or drips of power steering fluid under the vehicle are often a sign of a leak in the power steering system. If the problem is caught early on, hoses, bolts and washers, and gaskets can be replaced for a fraction of the cost while reducing potential damage to major components in your vehicle.
Difficult, Loose, or Unresponsive Steering
One of the most obvious issues with a power steering pump is when the steering wheel becomes very hard to turn. A loose or overly sensitive steering wheel that doesn't respond as expected when turning, could also be a sign that your steering system is in need of repair.
Whether We Repair or Replace, We Do So Honestly
Sometimes, we can replace a power steering belt and fix your steering issues or add more fluid to the power steering pump reservoir. Oftentimes, it is not that simple. Regardless, after we inspect your vehicle we will recommend replacing worn out or broken parts and let you know about any other issues we find. You can rely on us to recommend affordable solutions to fix your vehicle's steering system issues.
What Our Customers are Saying
Jose UrenaMarch 5, 2024Excellent work Excellent customer service Excellent price also I highly recommend
Bryan AtkinsonFebruary 29, 2024Great experience here! Jack didn't charge me until he told me what he was going to do. About 2 weeks in and my rebuilt transmission works just fine. Hopefully it will stay that way. A few bumps and catches on the way home, which worried me but he said there was a 100-150 mile "break-in period" for the transmission. Wish he would have said that when I left:) Front desk was very nice but a little out of it at times, I almost walked away with the keys to the car, they didn't ask for them when I dropped them off.
Migue PiedraFebruary 27, 2024Very good job, very professional and friendly staff, they repaired the transmission of my Honda Civic, they gave me a one-year warranty. The year has passed and my car, which I drive daily, continues to work very well.
Frank HerediaFebruary 26, 2024Took my truck because it was leaking oil and they took care me right away. Got me in and out very professional, they make you feel like family every time.
Ruben BFebruary 26, 2024So far they are 3 for 3!

William OdegardFebruary 5, 2024My transmission went out but I was able to make it home I called Advanced Transmission and they probably came and towed it to their shop. They were busy and Jack said it may take a day or two to tear it down and evaluate. This was okay since I had another car. Jack called in a couple days and quoted $2,800 parts and labor which I thought was reasonable for a rebuild. I could have put in a new one for a little bit more money but then I had a new transmission in an old car. I did end up paying $3,300 as I opted to replace some parts that wasn't originally in the quote. I told them to take their time and in about 10 days 2 weeks he called and it was ready. Great service, quality work, and the car runs like a top
