Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Loosening the steering wheel retaining nut and pulling on the steering wheel with both hands can damage the steering column or the wheel itself. Tapping on the steering shaft with a hammer, even a soft one, can damage the threads or the column. Proper removal typically involves using a steering wheel puller tool.
