It’s basically the connection point for a lot of your steering and suspension stuff. It holds the wheel hub, brake components, and connects to the control arms and steering linkage. It allows the wheel to pivot for steering, and also supports the weight of the vehicle. Think of it as a really strong pivot point. It’s a core piece of your front suspension. Everything ties into this. When you turn the steering wheel, the movement is transferred through the linkage and causes the knuckle to pivot, which turns the wheel. It also works with the suspension to absorb bumps and keep the tire in contact with the road. It’s a pretty critical component. Well, if a steering knuckle fails, you’re likely looking at a loss of steering control, and that’s obviously dangerous. It’s designed to be incredibly strong, but things like corrosion, impacts from potholes, or just general wear and tear can weaken it over time. You’ll notice if one’s failing—usually through vibrations in the steering wheel, uneven tire wear, or sometimes even a clunking sound when you go over bumps. It acts like a shield protecting other components, so when it's compromised, everything feels it. You can find a replacement fairly easily—Fixparts Online has a good selection—but it's definitely something you want to address promptly for safety reasons. Shop with confidence: Steering Knuckle (MPN 31216753461) comes with a 12-month warranty!
