After replacing the front suspension arms on my 2014 compact car, the steering wheel feels much lighter and not as stable as before. I took it to a repair shop, and they changed the valve core, saying it was a tire pressure issue. However, the light steering feel returned shortly after. I've already done wheel alignment and balancing, but haven't changed the power steering fluid. What could be the reason for this?

At the end of November, I replaced the control arm, steering rod, and axle assembly. Now the steering feels very light. When going over bumps, the steering wheel moves erratically. If I accelerate a bit aggressively, the steering veers off. Can someone help me out? [crying]
Hey guys, my Land Cruiser tends to pull the steering wheel when driving on bumpy roads, and it doesn't feel very stable. I've already done a wheel alignment, and the mechanic said there's nothing wrong. Is the steering wheel pulling a normal phenomenon?

4After changing to new tires, the steering feels heavier. I always used Continental CPC2, but switched to Goodyear Assurance (also did a wheel alignment). It doesn't veer off course, but the steering feels heavier, and the accelerator is also heavier. For those who've changed tires, how do you feel about it? Also, a reminder: wheel alignment is a maintenance service, not mandatory. If you choose to do it, make sure to check the shop's equipment and skills. I feel it wasn't really necessary this time.

7When driving on the highway, if the steering wheel starts vibrating when you exceed 100 km/h and the vibration becomes more pronounced at 120 km/h, it could indicate a few potential issues. It might be related to wheel balancing, alignment, or tire issues. You might want to have these checked by a professional to ensure safety.

9On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the reverse camera and 360 stopped working. I went to the 4S shop the next day for recalibration to fix it. Because the steering wheel was vibrating while driving on the highway, I did a wheel balancing and four-wheel alignment. Today, while driving on the highway, I noticed that the speed range at which the steering wheel vibrates has expanded, and now the seat also vibrates above 124 km/h. Can any expert provide some guidance?
10The steering wheel is crooked 🤦♂️. Even after doing a wheel alignment, it can't be fixed. The mechanic said it's caused by a deformed lower control arm?
