In Asian vehicles like the 2011 Nissan Altima, Prestone power steering fluid is typically used. Have you ever experienced your car feeling like it's suddenly going back to manual steering? This could be a clear sign that your power steering system is not functioning properly. One of the key components you should inspect first if the steering wheel becomes extremely difficult to turn is the power steering pump. These pumps can also have seals that might develop leaks, leading to a decrease in fluid level. If you suspect a malfunctioning power steering pump, it's recommended to check for any potential leaks. Running low on power steering fluid can harm the pump and result in unusual noises. Common indicators of low power steering fluid include abrupt steering responses and a hard-to-turn steering wheel.
