  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Hello to you all,

I recently came across a major unexpected issue with my 2015 Genesis where I was told from my mechanic that my Rack and Pinion is busted and needs to be replaced. I'm currently commuting in the DC area and was hopeful that someone can provide a parts store or point of contact where I may possibly find one. Thanks to you all for this wonderful forum and the treasure trove of useful info.
 
Here you go. It is expensive part new and hard to find used.

This may be a stupid question but is your steering still operational w/ out any warning lights, noise, vibration & etc,? If so, I'd find another mechanic....
 
Hello to you. It hardly turns at all. I initially took it to the dealership and then to a local reputable mechanic for verification.

Yup, that's a problem. Had to ask - said you were "currently commuting"...

If your car is RWD, there's a bunch of them on car-part.com Search for Steering 'Rack/Box/Gear'.

No my steering not operational at all unfortunately.

It's the 3.8 AWD. However, on another note, since the engine is the same on the 2018 G80's I was able to find a refurbished rack and pinion. Would it be possible to use that part on my 2015 or is it not recommended?
