Electrical steering failure SolvedSolved

Toyota Yaris 2013  82000 miles
Hi everyone, I hope you can help me. Some time ago, I collided from the driver's side and, since then, it has been turning more softly to that side and more heavily to the other. Due to the collision, only the shock absorber and suspension plate needed to be replaced. The wheel alignment was perfect so nothing had to be done to it but, when lifting the tires with the engine working, they only turned to one side. Hope you can give me a hand.

That problem is due to the steering rack. The most probable thing is that, when colliding, a bar from such steering rack was twisted and that is why it is heavier to turn it to one side. I would recommend you to change the whole steering rack.
