Maruti Ritz Steering Getting Tight

[antony]

Hi,

I had changed all 4 tyres, 4 months back of my 2010 Ritz which completed only 4750 km till date and 500 km
after the Tyre change. Recently around 1 month,
i noticed that the steering wheel become tight and there is a considerable loss of power steering.
After the tyre change, the tyre shop owner had done the wheel alignment.

Could you pl help what would be the problem? Is it due to back wheel alignment done by that tyre shop?
No warning signal in the console...

Hi Antony,
Check with 1) Power steering fluid level, 2)Whether the belt connecting to power steering pump has come off 3)Bearings

It could be a fuse issue.Check the fuse box.If that is not the problem, get the wiring checked.

Hi Antony,
Did you upsize the tires or its as per OEM specification. Though a 3 year old car, what was the need to change tires after 5K odd KM only ?
