Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Electric assist can be applied not only at the steering column but also directly to the steering rack or gear, making Technician A's statement incorrect. Technician B is correct as belts are a routine service item and often have a replacement interval of 60,000 to 90,000 miles.
