Some Toyota Camry owners report experiencing steering shaft issues after replacement, including stiff steering that may stem from power steering system problems. These concerns highlight the importance of the intermediate steering shaft, which connects the steering wheel to the steering rack. Additionally, some owners have noted that improper installation of the replacement part can lead to further complications. Toyota has implemented Customer Support Program 22TE02 to address these steering problems, and it is advisable for owners to contact Toyota or a certified repair center if they encounter any issues post-replacement. Promptly addressing these steering concerns is crucial for the safety and proper functioning of the vehicle.
