Need new motors? Grind a gearbox? Adding teeth to a pinion?

12v Camaro Steering Issue

Post by Intelli »

I got my son a Camaro back in May. He rides at least once a week.
The steering broke recently. It will turn left but not right unless you whack it. It seems like something is stripped.
The National Products people are great they just needed a receipt for the replacement parts to be sent for Scammer.

I can't find the receipt. No biggie the replacement parts cant be that expensive, but i checked online many people are having this steering issue with this car.

Anybody have a quick fix? :cry:

OK it is the steering wheel that is stripped.
I took it apart yesterday and took a look inside the steering wheel and noticed that the plastic was stripped almost in both directions.
steering wheel replacement $15.00 bucks. http://www.funcreation.net/stree.html
maybe if it wasn't plastic it would be more durable. I think i should get 2 of em.
the national products guy says that the new steering wheel will be more sturdy. Excellent!!! :lol:
I'll load some pics for you guys when i change it.

How did the new steering wheel hold up? I'm thinking of buying the pink Camaro for my daughter and a lot of the reviews I read complain about the steering wheel stripping.
