Abstract
A steering device includes: a housing including a first planar surface, the housing being configured to accommodate a part of a rack shaft; an electric motor including a second planar surface facing the first planar surface, the electric motor including a bracket configured to support a rotary shaft; a tightening member configured to tighten the housing and the bracket in a state where the first planar surface and the second planar surface are mated; and a sealing member configured to provide sealing between the housing and the bracket at a position that is closer to the rotary shaft than the tightening member is. At least one of the first planar surface and the second planar surface is formed with a recess located between the tightening member and the sealing member and depressed from the at least one of the first planar surface and the second planar surface.
