In 2009 Chevy Impalas, common power steering issues include worn strut bearings and a loose steering pump. It is recommended to change the power steering fluid every 75,000 miles. As you maintain your vehicle by changing fluids, you may notice noises coming from the steering components. A defective bearing will produce an unpleasant noise, while a loose one can be annoying to hear. Proper steering is crucial for maneuvering through lanes and navigating on the road, but problems may arise eventually. You might experience a stuck steering wheel, drifting to one side, or leakage of steering fluid. A loose steering pump can lead to disastrous consequences for your car, and worn strut bearings or a faulty rack mount can also cause issues.
