The power steering system is designed to multiply mechanical force, allowing you to turn the vehicle with minimal effort. Most modern vehicles use pressurized hydraulic fluid or an electric pump. Over time these systems are prone to leaks because they still use rubber hoses and seals that degrade from age and temperature changes. When leaks start to happen, if you do not repair it promptly it will cause other components to work harder and resulting in needing additional repairs.
