The steering wheel and column have the following 4 primary functions:
The steering wheel is the first link between the driver and the vehicle. The steering wheel is fastened to a steering shaft within the steering column. At the lower end of the steering column, the intermediate steering shaft connects the steering column to the steering gear.
The steering wheel and column may have theft deterrent components mounted and designed into the steering column.
The steering wheel and column may have driver controls attached for convenience and comfort.
The steering column has safety features to protect the driver.
The energy-absorbing steering column compresses in the event of a front-end collision, which reduces the chance of injury to the driver. The energy-absorbing feature, collapsible steering shaft, and break away mounting features help reduce the injury in the event of an accident.
