How Power Steering Work in Your Nissan

The power steering pump creates hydraulic pressure, using a series of hoses to distribute the power steering fluid to the steering gear, continuously while the engine is running. So in the event that any component of the Power Steering System starts to fail, you can expect to experience increased resistance and slower response time when turning.

Once you reach out to Nissan of Tustin, you can expect one of our Nissan Technicians to flush all the fluid, debris and buildup that invariably build up during the normal wear and tear that occurs during day-to-day driving. Then, once the chemical flush is completed and the tank has been cleared of all the build-up, we run fresh power steering fluid through the system per factory standards. From there we will be able to determine the status of the power steering pump and also inspect the hoses that run through the Power Steering System. And we always one use the best OEM parts on your Nissan, so you know they are engineered to handle the high pressure and temperatures required to keep your Nissan in tip-top shape.
