Methods and systems for performing steering alignment health checks

Methods and systems are provided for monitoring a steering system of a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving torque signal data corresponding to torque signals received from a torque sensor associated with the steering system; processing the torque signal data to determine an average torque value; determining a health status of an alignment of the steering system based on the average torque value; and generating at least one of a signal, a message, and a code to notify a user based on the health status. 提供了用于监控车辆的转向系统的方法和系统。在个实施例中，方法包括：接收对应于从与转向系统相关联的转矩传感器接收的转矩信号的转矩信号数据；处理转矩信号数据以确定平均转矩值；基于平均转矩值确定转向系统的对准的健康状态；以及基于健康状态产生信号、消息和代码中的至少者来通知使用者。
