Cost and coverage
Which repair costs could coverage help with?
A steering-rack replacement includes the cost of the assembly and the labor to install it. Alignment and related suspension work can remain outside the quoted repair.
The 2 benchmarks in this category put parts between $535 and $1,746.
Modeled labor ranges from 1.6 to 5.1 hours. At the $148 median metro rate, that is roughly $236 to $753 before parts.
Look for the rack, motor and electronic steering module in the agreement. Ask whether alignment or fluid is paid when required by an approved repair.
