Steering play o r a loose steering feel means there is excessive free movement in the steering wheel before the wheels actually respond, making precise control difficult. Common causes in a Hyundai Tucson include worn steering rack components, loose o r worn tie rods, ball joints, o r steering column issues. Rough roads and potholes in Pakistan accelerate wear on these parts. Loose steering can also be caused by a worn o r stretched steering shaft U-joint. To fix steering play, start with a thorough inspection of the steering and suspension components by a qualified mechanic. They will check for worn tie rods, ball joints, and steering rack issues and replace any faulty parts. Adjustments o r tightening of the steering column connections may also be needed. After repairs, a wheel alignment is essential to restore proper handling. Addressing steering play promptly is critical for safe driving, especially on busy Pakistani roads.
