What car part moves left or right as the steering wheel moves, directing the front wheels in the proper direction?

The rack is a bar parallel to the front axle that moves left or right as the steering wheel moves. Although steering racks are durable, they must sometimes be replaced. Inability to spin the steering wheel in one direction but not the other, jerky action, or noises are indicators of a malfunctioning rack.
