On my 2001 Acura MDX, I had the rack and pinion, and right-side axle replaced 2 weeks ago. Now I noticed, when I accelerate suddenly, there's a bit of a vibration on the steering.

My mechanic says that because I didn't replace the left axle, it's the reason for the slight vibration. Is what mechanic says correct ? He quoted me $110 to replace the left side axle.

Immediately take your car to a dealership. You run the risk of a major catestrpohic component failure. I wish I offer you a better alternative. Best of luck!

My 2003 ford focus lost it's power steering, mechanic replaced the rack and pinion thing - lost steering again and now the mechanic says it is the power steering pump. The rack and pinion was replaced...

if the rack and pinion was not leaking or causing problems. then he may of made a wrong move! if the rack was fine before, and you just lost power steering. then it is most likely the power steering pump or the lines that go from rack to the pump. good-day ! if a rack goes bad, you will get a bad steering problem or just bad steering.
