Some Mazda 2 owners report experiencing poor steering performance, including clunking sounds while turning and steering pull, which can be alleviated by replacing tie rod ends with aftermarket options. These aftermarket steering tie rod ends are designed to provide extended service life and improved performance compared to OEM parts. Additionally, some owners find that opting for these aftermarket components is a cost-effective solution that enhances steering performance due to their engineered fit, form, and function. However, it is crucial for owners to ensure proper installation of these tie rod ends, as incorrect installation or issues with the power steering system can lead to difficulties in steering.
