Stiff steering wheel - Toyota Yaris Forums

I have this problem too. I hit the curb, in fact I replaced my wishbone due to this, now the steering is harder (noticeable when I am trying to park).

My alignment was off and so I did an alignment exorcise, the problem is that when I need to turn a complete rotation, it is harder to turn upon reaching the very end of the rotation. What could be the problem?

Bump for someone who is perhaps viewing the post at this time of the day.

Did you replace the wishbone with a genuine Toyota one or with an aftermarket one?

Nope with a Toyota one.
