When it comes to purchasing a used car, testing it is a crucial step in the decision-making process. But there is one major trap that many buyers fall into: they focus too much on the exterior and neglect other important safety aspects.
Among the most important are problems with the steering system. They can be very dangerous and have serious consequences for the safety of the driver and passengers.

If you notice that there is a delay or excessive resistance in the movement of the steering wheel, there may be a problem with the steering system.
