Steering rack OEM Volkswagen or OEM Mazda

My rack came furnished with new tie rod inner and outer ends(Affects steering accuracy and tigheness) and boots installed, OEM, ready to go.

Dealership replaced electronic steering rack under warranty and issue fixed.

I just got mine replaced like two weeks ago and no problems since then. Mine was bad from the very beginning literally l noticed it few days after I purchased my brand new 2019 Atlas.

As for the r32 rack, definitely quickens the steering. The swap really isn't very hard if you are already dropping the subframe for whatever reason.

Instead I installed an aftermarket 'rebuilt' 4 bolt unit. Came with new bellows boots and inner tie rods, was still a bit pricey but saved something like $300 - 500 vs buying a rack & harness from my dealer.

I just had mine replaced on my 2019 SE R-Line this week. The noise was gone but the alignment was off!

My VDub has been good and bad. Lots of expensive components I had to replace. Steering rack

I went to pick up my car from the dealership after a steering rack failure that occurred at highway speeds. The dealership confirmed they have been replacing more and more steering racks, especially recently. The steering rack is failing at the worm gear, and this part has been revised several times. I've never had a warrantied part fail in a way that tried to throw me into a concrete barrier at highway speeds. I don't feel safe putting my family in this car. After signing paperwork, I realized the steering was still messed up; the steering wheel wasn't returning to center, almost like there wasn't enough power steering pressure. The car never left the dealership.

The steering rack was replaced earlier this year when it started to lock randomly.

Got my steering rack replaced two months ago and taking my car back to the dealer on Monday due to the same noise issue that started to happen week after repair.
