The power steering system requires hydraulic fluid to transfer amplified turning power from the power steering pump to the components connected to the front wheels. Power steering fluid does not require exchange service as scheduled maintenance; instead, it needs exchange service for problems like leaking, contamination, or another power steering fluid malfunction indicator. Some drivers wait until steering problems develop to get the power steering fluid exchanged. You can get proactive power steering fluid exchange service around 60,000 to 75,000 miles to mitigate the likelihood of bad power steering fluid causing problems.
Bad power steering fluid performance can create an unsafe driving experience, especially if you cannot turn the steering wheel as easily as before. We recommend an immediate power steering system inspection, including the fluid, if you experience any of these power steering fluid problem indicators:
Power steering fluid exchange service involves a certified technician removing the old fluid and inspecting the system for other problems, such as the cause of leaking. A power steering component might require repairs if worn or damaged.
