Hard to turn the wheel? Hearing whining noises when steering? It might be time for power steering service. At Calstate Auto Repair in Burbank, we help Los Angeles drivers steer safely and smoothly with expert power steering inspections, fluid service, and repairs.
What Does the Power Steering System Do?
The power steering system helps you turn the wheel with ease. It uses:
- Hydraulic fluid (in most vehicles)
- Power steering pump
- Hoses and lines
- Steering gear or rack
- In electric systems: motors and sensors
When any of these fail, steering becomes difficult—and dangerous.
Signs You Need Power Steering Service
- Whining or groaning noise when turning
- Stiff or slow steering response
- Fluid leaks under the vehicle (usually red or pink)

- Inspecting the entire power steering system
- Checking and replacing fluid (if dirty or low)

Why Power Steering Fluid Matters
Over time, power steering fluid breaks down and can cause:
- Increased wear on components
- Stiff steering feel
- Premature pump or rack failure

Regular fluid service can help avoid big problems later.
