Acura TL's ARC Rack and pinion steering assembly is almost always power assisted. It hasn't changed much in all the years it's been used and is quite simple. Loose steering parts will make your vehicle difficult to handle and will cause the front tires to wear out prematurely. That's why it's very important to have the steering checked at least once a year. If you live in a area where you have to do a lot of turns ,most likely the inner tie rod ends will wear out twice as fast, and your tires will show bald on the outside of the tires. One end of the inner tie rod ends is connected to either end of this rod and the other end is connected to directly to the outer tie rod end. The inner tie rod end is actually threaded into the outer tie rod end and can be rotated to make adjustments during a wheel alignment.The advantage of the rack and pinion steering is that it is more precise than the mechanical system. By reducing the number of parts and pivot points, it can more accurately control wheel direction and is more responsive. The down side of a rack & pinion steering system is that they are prone to leakage requiring replacement of the rack assembly.
