Tie Rods

Service Description
Tie rods help push and pull the front tires as the steering wheel is turned. They play a key role in the performance of your vehicle’s steering – and your safety. And, like most parts, they go bad because of the normal wear and tear of everyday driving. Faulty tie rods can result in erratic steering, wandering and significant tire wear. It’s a good idea to have the pros at Big O Tires diagnose steering problems and repair or replace tie rods if necessary.

Included in your service:

  • Diagnosis of steering problems
  • Repair or replace as necessary
