Q: What are the inspection procedures for involved in accidents with potential steering column damage on Cadillac CTS?
A:
A vehicle damaged through frame damage or severe body or sheet metal damage will require inspection of its Steering Column after accidents when supplemental inflatable restraint deployment affects column alignment and when either impact hits the Steering Column or accidental maneuvers with the column. Check both the location and seating condition of all Steering Column bracket capsules while levering their position through manual hand pressure tests. The installation method of the bracket to the jacket assembly requires careful observation. The replacement process should include only the bracket when the capsules are not properly seated and the bracket connects to the jacket assembly through bolts. Replace only the bracket when the caps are not properly set in place and the bracket uses welding to affix to the jacket assembly. The distance from the bottom edge of the upper jacket to a defined point on the lower jacket should be measured to confirm specifications for jacket assembly condition. Failed measurements need replacement of the whole jacket assembly. Check whether the tabs on the bearing and adapter assembly sustain damage. Check the Steering Shaft for sheared plastic material through visual inspection because replacement of the Steering Shaft is necessary when sheared plastic is detected. A dial indicator should measure the Steering Shaft runout from its lower end when rotating the steering wheel until the measurement does not surpass 1.60 mm (0.0625 inch).
Q: What should be inspected in accidents to determine if the steering column is damaged or misaligned on Cadillac Escalade?
A:
Accidental incidents that lead to frame destruction together with significant body or sheet metal destruction or collisions to the Steering Column or supplementary inflatable restraint system activations can result in Steering Column damage or misalignment. Check that all caps on the bracket assembly of the Steering Column mount securely fit within their slots and then inspect for any loose conditions after manual hand testing; immediately replace the bracket through jacket welding when detection occurs but ensure bracket replacement when the connection is bolted. The jacket assembly needs replacement if measurements from the Steering Column support bracket mounting plate show lower edge distances below 286 mm. Under this condition, remove the sir coil from the Steering Column to verify jacket assembly collapse and perform further inspections. A damaged Steering Shaft should be replaced when sheared plastic is visibly detected through examination. Use a dial indicator at the bottom of the Steering Shaft to check for frame damage that might cause Steering Shaft bending while spinning the steering wheel. The maximum allowed runout measurement is 1.60 mm (0.0625 in).
