What Our Power Steering Flush Is And When You Need It

No matter where you’re headed (in life and on the road) good steering makes a world of difference in how you get there. So, if you suspect a problem with your power steering, bring it to us for a free steering fluid check.

Signs You May Have Low Power Steering Fluid:
  • Your vehicle has a power steering fluid leak (power steering fluid color is a clear- or amber-colored fluid that smells like burnt marshmallow)
  • It’s hard to steer, or steering is less responsive
  • You hear noises when you turn your steering wheel
  • You’re past your vehicle manufacturer’s recommended replacement interval
COMMON POWER STEERING FLUID QUESTIONS

Looking for assistance?

During our power steering fluid change, our service technicians will carefully check your vehicle for any power steering fluid leaks. We'll share with you any issues we find, and let you decide whether you'd like to proceed with an appointment to flush and change your vehicle’s power steering fluid.

If you wish to proceed with the flush, we’ll drain your old power steering fluid and flush your power steering components using state-of-the-art equipment.

Finally, Goodyear Auto Service technicians will replace your old fluid with new, high-quality power steering fluid in accordance with your vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations so you can get back on the road with confidence.

Flushing or changing your power steering fluid can help:

  • Extend the life of your vehicle’s power steering components
  • Improve steering efficiency and performance
  • Prevent future leaks and costly future repairs

Goodyear Auto Service suggests a power steering fluid flush once, early in a vehicle’s life (before hitting 50,000 miles) to remove contaminants and help extend component life, and then again at 50,000 miles or greater based on your vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations.

Of course, if you notice power steering problems, fluid leaks, or uneven tire wear, you should make an appointment to see us at your earliest convenience.
