The Honda Accord average ($407) runs 20% above its median ($340), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.

Our guide covers 11 model years for the Honda Accord (2015–2025) but only 7 for the Subaru Ascent (2019–2025), so the Honda Accord data reflects a broader range of generations.

The Honda Accord steering rack is interchangeable across 13 model years versus just 7 for the Subaru Ascent — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.

Buyer's checklist

What to check before buying a used steering rack

  • Check for power steering fluid leaks at the input shaft seal and at both inner tie rod boots.
  • Confirm whether it's hydraulic or electric power steering — they're completely different units.
  • Look for a bent housing or damaged mounting ears from collision damage.
  • Ask whether inner tie rods are included. Replacing them separately adds labor and cost.
