Best Answer

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 will you experience if one of your front tires blows out?

You will experience the vehicle pull sharply toward the side of the blowout. If you do not panic you should be fine. Lift off the accelerator, and lightly apply the brakes.
