Common Causes of Semi-Truck Steering Issues
Tire Issues
Uneven tire wear and poor inflation can lead to steering issues.
Strain caused by overloading creates excess heat in the steering gearbox, which can damage the steering system.
Overloading Cargo
Tight King Pins

Steering Gear Issues
Leaking power steering fluid, loose bolts, improper gear adjustment, and kinked hoses are all issues that cause steering trouble.
