The track is part of your vehicle's suspension system and is located underneath it. The rod is attached to the suspension link, which provides a lateral position of the axle. The suspension allows the wheels to move up and down with the car body. The track does not allow the suspension to move from side to side, which can damage the car.

The track bar consists of a rigid rod that runs in the same plane as the axle. It connects one end of the axle to the car body on the other side of the car. Both ends are connected by hinges that allow the rod to move up and down.

If the tie rod is too short on the vehicle, this will allow side to side movement between the axle and the body. This problem usually occurs on smaller vehicles than large ones. In addition, the track may show signs of wear and fail over time. Eventually, if these problems are not corrected, the steering rack will fail and could damage your car's suspension.

One of the most obvious signs that your track is failing or failing is when the tires begin to wobble uncontrollably. This usually occurs when the bearings are too far away from the steering assembly. Also, the wobble feeling is noticeable at all speeds, but gets worse at higher speeds. This can be dangerous as you may lose control of the vehicle. Once you notice this symptom, see a certified mechanic for further diagnosis of the situation. An experienced mechanic will replace your track and make your driving safe.

Because a caterpillar can wear out and fail over time, it's important to be able to recognize the symptoms it's showing before it completely fails.

Signs that your trackbar needs to be replaced include:

• Steering wheel needs to be turned

• The car is hard to turn

• Car pulls to one side

• You notice that the tires wobble uncontrollably.

To make sure you have a stable and reliable vehicle, see a certified mechanic for any other issues your vehicle may have in order to reduce further complications with your vehicle.
