Are you having trouble steering your car smoothly? Do you feel resistance when turning the steering wheel? At Prime Auto Care, we offer power steering service and repairs to help restore your vehicle's steering performance.

Our expert technicians are equipped with the latest tools and technology to diagnose and repair any issues with your power steering system. We offer a range of services to ensure your vehicle's power steering is functioning properly:

Power steering fluid flush: Over time, power steering fluid can become contaminated or degraded, affecting the performance of your steering system. We can flush the old fluid and replace it with new, high-quality fluid to restore smooth steering.

Power steering pump replacement: The power steering pump is responsible for pressurizing the fluid to provide the power assistance when turning the wheel. If it fails, you'll experience difficulty steering. Our technicians can replace the pump to ensure your steering system is working properly.

Power steering hose and belt replacement: Leaks or damage to the power steering hoses or belts can cause fluid loss or reduced power steering assistance. We can replace any damaged components to keep your steering system in top condition.

Power steering rack and pinion replacement: The power steering rack and pinion is responsible for translating the steering wheel's movement into the wheels' turning. If it becomes damaged or worn, you may notice excessive play or vibration when turning. We can replace the rack and pinion to restore precise steering control.

We are committed to providing quality service and repairs to keep your vehicle running smoothly. Contact us today to schedule your power steering service or repairs at our Lonsdale workshop.

Effortless Steering? You're not dreaming...

3D 4 wheel electronic alignment system now available at Prime Auto Care.

This is our new recently installed Hoffman Geoliner 680 advanced wheel alignment system, together with a new rigid platform scissor lift front and rear wheel alignment hoist. With 3 experienced alignment technicians we can now perform precise alignment for optimum tyre life and performance vehicle handling.

We can combine our fully qualified expertise and knowledge with our local understanding of the driving conditions in lonsdale to not only make sure your wheels are aligned correctly, but to confirm there are no underlying issues with the technologies behind the wheel that keep you safe on the roads.

Put simply, the term “wheel alignment” refers to how well the wheels on your vehicle are aligned relative to each other, as well as to the centre line of the vehicle. While alignment settings can differ between manufacturers and models, all vehicles are designed to deliver precise steering and braking responses - but only if the wheel alignment angles are correct for that vehicle.

Braking and steering response is improved

driver fatigue is reduced as the overall driving experience is improved

Maintaining the wheel alignment on your car is an integral aspect of its overall maintenance and upkeep. However, this very important step is often ignored or skipped until the first symptoms of poor wheel alignment show up in the form of ruined tyres. Here's some common signs to look out for…

Uneven or accelerated wear on the edges of your tyres

The steering has a “mushy” feel or has become less responsive

If your car's steering wheel pulls to one side

Obviously, the best time to get a wheel alignment is when noticeable symptoms of poor alignment are present, but there are also other “best” times:

When you replace standard, steel rims with lightweight alloy rims

After any maintenance or repairs on steering or suspension systems - both front and rear

When you perform any modification that alters the vehicle ride height or weight distribution

Wheel balance refers to how smoothly an individual wheel rotates around its own centre. Unbalanced wheels can cause other parts of your car to wear down faster - such as shock absorbers, struts and steering. If your wheels are not balanced properly it can affect the overall performance and feel of your car. 

Your steering wheel or car vibrates at high speed.

Your tyres have had some rough treatment such as potholes or extremely rough roads. 

Prime Auto Care are fully equipped to balance your wheels - if you have any concerns, don't hesitate to make a booking today.
