ABSTRACT:
A four-wheel steering system includes a front wheel turning mechanism which turns the front wheels in response to the turning of the steering wheel, a rear wheel turning mechanism which turns the rear wheels in response to the turning of the steering wheel, and a power steering mechanism. The rear wheel turning mechanism changes the rear wheel turning angle ratio, which is the ratio of the rear wheel turning angle to the front wheel turning angle, on the basis of predetermined rear wheel turning angle ratio characteristic curves. The assisting force of the power steering mechanism is changed when the rear wheel turning mechanism fails.
