Signs of Power Steering Failure & Prevention
Recognizing the early signs of power steering failure can prevent costly repairs and ensure your safety on the road. Look out for the following symptoms:
- Difficulty in turning the steering wheel
- Unusual noises when steering, such as whining or squealing
- Steering wheel vibration
- Leaking power steering fluid
- Steering wheel slow to respond
Identifying these signs early is crucial because continued driving with a compromised power steering system can lead to severe steering issues, potentially causing traffic incidents. Regularly checking your power steering fluid level and condition can help maintain the system’s efficiency. If these symptoms are noticed, scheduling a diagnostic check is important to prevent further damage or complete power steering failure.
