Electric power steering

[Gale Hawkins]

Electrical power steering is a requirement for self driving cars and trucks.

Not sure if this counts or not. We use ATV's and UTV's which all have electric assist steering and done so for +-15 years. These are all work machines and see many, many hours of hard use before retirement. Among these, we've had zero failures or maintenance on these units. The UTV we have now weights about 1800lbs and you can steer it while static and on pavement. Its quite powerful! We'd not get a machine without it.

At that weight it would be like having a tractor without power steering.

.......... the steering wheel wont be connected to nothing .......

When I was a kid, we had a Morris Minor given to us. Its steering would occasionally do this.

Neighbor had the EPS take a dump on him, he then hit a curb and was stranded...

He said it cost him 1K to get it fixed...
