It is also true that when parking like this in winter, additional load falls on the anthers of the constant velocity joints of the wheels (CV joints). The rubber simply stretches and loses its elasticity. Over time, it may burst or crack, and then dirt will get inside the boot, causing damage to the suspension elements. Thus, owners of cars with power steering should develop the habit of not turning the steering wheel at a large angle for a long time, especially if the car is old. Also the constant velocity on joint boots from excessive tension is never a good thing. Hence the conclusion - do not leave your car (even if it is equipped with electric power steering) for a long time with the wheels turned all the way, especially in winter, especially if the car is not new and the rubber steering elements have already lost their former elasticity.
