The 2003 Ford Escape uses Mercon ATF as its power steering fluid. Replacing the power steering pump in a Ford Escape typically costs between $297 and $383. Labor expenses range from $151 to $188, while parts cost between $156 and $205. Maintaining proper steering is essential for safe driving, as issues such as a stuck steering wheel, veering to one side, fluid leaks, faulty rack mount, bad strut bearings, or a loose steering pump can lead to serious vehicle problems.
