Some common power steering problems in the Kia Sorento include a faulty power steering pump, a damaged power steering hose, and an unreliable solenoid power steering system. You may notice a leak and spot fluid on the ground or under the hood. Additionally, you might hear unusual noises when turning or using the power steering. The power steering components, including a belt, can be found in the engine compartment. Signs of power steering issues may include unresponsive steering, stiffness when turning the wheel, a loose steering wheel, and noise like squealing or whining, especially during start-up. The cost of replacement will vary depending on the specific problem, typically falling in the range of $100 to $250.
