tie rod replaced Sign In

Good morning,

i have to ask, i had my upper and lower right side tie rods replace, 3 days after picking the car up...i had the right side caliper completely freeze and then power steering fluid laking from the right side, so bad i have to refill every 2 day, never in 3 years have i had to add any...do you experts see any corelation of these???? or is it a really bad coincidence????????

Thank you all

Difficult to say unless you can determine the cause of failure for those items.

Just curious, did the caliper really freeze or the flex hose to it? That and find the leak of PS fluid. Just maybe the rack couldn't take any abuse in putting in a tie rod. IDK till it's all inspected and not here to blame the work on this on anyone as I'm not there looking and wasn't there when work was done. Sometimes stuff just happens.

PS: If truly a frozen caliper hope you did both sides and the flex hoses.........
