Section 8 (Steering Columns): Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1993 Suzuki Swift. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Collapsible steering columns are used on all models. Upper and lower column sections are joined by a "U" joint. The upper column sliding section compresses on impact. The column lower end connects to the steering gear pinion flange with a flexible coupling.
