It is very important that if you are having issues with your vehicle (especially its steering) to have it towed or professionally taken to your car dealership to be repaired. Do not drive your vehicle if it has major problems and be sure to get it professionally repaired at your vehicle's dealership.

Why does your steering jerk from side to side?
It depends on the type of vehicle and the steering system that it has. If the vehicle has rack and pinion steering, it may be a bad rack and pinion. If the vehicle has a steering gear, like most older cars of pickup trucks, It could have a bad steering gear.
What would cause your steering wheel to rotate 360 degrees and the tires not move?

What is a pinion?
A pinion is a grooved gear that attaches to the drive shaft of a vehicle. This is a major component in the steering and suspension system of a vehicle.
What is the two main types of steering systems?
Worm gear and rack and pinion.
How does rack and pinion steering work?
Very simply. Inside the steering unit, there is a rod called a rack. It has vertical teeth on it like an upside down handsaw. In the column is a shaft with a gear on the end of it called a pinion. It's similar to the pinion gear in a rear axle. When you turn the wheel, the pinion gear makes the rack move sideways. This gives very precise steering to a car. Need a link to more information?

How does the Rack and Pinion Steering work?
Rack and Pinion steering is the most modern type of steering in new vehicles. A "rack" and a "pinion" are two tools in which help the vehicle to turn easier. When you turn the steering wheel in your car, the pinion's gear spins along the rack, allowing your vehicle to turn.
What is the function of pinion gear?
A pinion gear is a small gear that engages with a larger gear or a rack to transmit torque and motion in mechanical systems. Its primary function is to convert rotational motion into linear motion or to alter the direction of motion, such as in steering systems or gear trains. Pinion gears are commonly used in applications like automotive steering, elevators, and various machinery to increase efficiency and control.
What are the differences between the rack and pinion to a steering gear system?
The rack and pinion steering system converts the rotational motion of the steering wheel into linear motion, allowing the vehicle's wheels to turn. It consists of a circular pinion gear that engages with a flat rack, translating the steering input directly to wheel movement. In contrast, a steering gear system can refer to various mechanisms, including recirculating ball systems, which use a series of ball bearings to reduce friction and provide a different feel in steering responsiveness. Overall, the rack and pinion system is generally simpler, more compact, and offers direct feedback compared to other types of steering gear systems.
