Which device moves the steering wheel up and down?

• A. The power steering pump
• B. The steering wheel lock
• C. The dashboard height adjuster
• D. The tilt wheel steering device

Answer: (D)

The task is about adjusting the steering wheel to fit your driving position. The device that moves the steering wheel up and down is the tilt wheel steering device. It changes the angle of the steering column so you can raise or lower the wheel to a comfortable height, which helps you keep a good hand position and full control of the vehicle.

This differs from other mechanisms: the power steering pump reduces the effort needed to turn the wheel but doesn’t change its position. The steering wheel lock prevents movement when the car is off. A dashboard height adjuster, when present, would affect the dash area, not the wheel itself. So the tilt wheel device is the one designed specifically to move the wheel up and down.
