If your 2014 Nissan Sentra is making a whining noise coming from the front of the engine or inside the cabin, then you likely have a failing power steering pump. This noise is typically caused by an issue with the power steering fluid that the pump is trying to circulate. Power steering pumps are meant to assist you in turning the steering wheel smoothly and with minimal effort, enhancing your grip on the road. When the pump is on its way out, it will often produce a whining or grinding sound, especially noticeable when you turn the wheel. If left unresolved, the pump will eventually fail completely, resulting in a loss of steering assistance.
