Steering wheels are an integral component of your car, primarily controlling the direction of your vehicle.
In a Tesla or any other renowned car brand, steering wheels are often equipped with built in accessory functions.
These functions may include audio system selection, volume control, cruise control and self-driving capabilities.
Though you might have to face certain steering problems if you own a Tesla.
Let’s find out what they are and how you can solve them.
Major Issues in Steering Wheels of Tesla
Premature Wear and Tear
It is a fact that steering wheels are under use for greater time periods than any other interior component. This would explain why they would undergo more wear. However, it should still takes at least 30,000 miles to wear through its material.
But in case of the newly introduced steering yokes in the Tesla Model S, the process of wear may start as early as 4,000 miles.
This problem can be associated with a poor choice of material by Tesla to manufacture their steering yokes.
Failed Heated Steering Feature
Heated steering wheel was previously an option only in long range versions of Tesla. As of 2021, it was included as a standard option in all of the Tesla models.
Thus, if you own a low range Tesla older than 2021, you might be missing out on the warmth of the steering wheel.
This can especially become a problem when you take your car out early morning in the cold winters when the hands are freezing and barely able to grip anything.
Impractical Design
Talking more about the steering yoke in Tesla Model S Plaid, its customers have reviewed it to be an unnecessary gimmick. Not only that it is considered an unsafe option as well.
This is due to the fact that yokes in formula cars are meant to make only one full rotation on either side. While the drivers use a maximum of 180 degrees during a race.
This makes the steering inordinately twitchy for a Tesla driver. This is because its steering rack is similar to other normal-driven cars and not like the one in Formulas.
