What Happens When You Skip Power Steering Flush?

Dirty fluid becomes a failed steering pump

Power steering fluid collects debris and breaks down with heat. Once it does, it grinds away at the most expensive parts in the system.

Stage 1
Fluid Ages
It darkens

Power steering fluid darkens and thickens. Steering still feels fine, but wear is starting.

Stage 2
Noise & Effort
Steering groans

You hear whining when turning and feel slightly heavier steering as fluid degrades.

Stage 3
Pump Wear
Parts strain

Contaminated fluid wears the pump and rack seals, causing leaks and stiffness.

Stage 4
Failure
Steering fails

A failed pump or rack means hard, unsafe steering and a major repair.

Did you know?

A simple power steering flush protects a pump and rack that can cost ten times as much to replace.

The folks at Community Auto are fantastic. Super nice. Very communicative. Often less expensive than other options. They even took a look at a repair I asked them about and recommended I hold off because it wasn't going to be necessary for another 6-12 months. Nothing better than an auto shop you feel you can really trust. Strong recommend.

We've been using Community Auto for 4 years and they just keep getting better. They treat us right. Great communication. I like the reports we get, I can always log in and see the reports from the past and the history of maintenance and repairs. I love that they'll send and respond to text messages. That makes it so much easier.

Knowledgeable and willing to explain what needs done and why. Even though I have been coming here for years, I sometimes double check what the technicians advise and look around a prices. Community Auto wins in skill and price every time.

If you're looking for an honest mechanic in Fort Collins, stop searching and go to Community Auto. These folks are what "community" is supposed to mean. They've earned my trust because they always do the right thing—even when the dealership has tried to do me dirty. They know their stuff, they're transparent, and they never make me feel like I'm being sold something I don't need. Their communication and follow-up are outstanding, and they always take the extra time to explain things when needed. Best of all, they do quality work at a fair price. Finding a shop you can truly trust is rare. Community Auto has mine for life, and I recommend them without hesitation.

Trustworthy shop with very helpful staff. Took my car to get inspected after the Ford dealership diagnosed an issue with a strut bushing previously replaced by Community Auto. The diagnosis of the dealer was found to be incorrect and the actual cause of the noise occuring was determined to be the steering rack for which no service was required. The inspection provided had a great outline of how the conclusion of the inspections were reached making me confident in the findings. Furthermore, they did not charge me for inspection of their previous work and didn't provide any additional charges for actually locating the cause of the issue.

This crew has taken AMAZING care of my CSU grad student and her east coast 'vintage' car she's lovingly named "Daisy". Trust doesn't come easy, and this place has definitely earned it. Thank you! from this mama's worried heart.

Great auto shop with friendly technicians. I have had service on two vehicles at this shop and have totally been satisfied with their work to get my vehicles on the road in good shape. I thoroughly enjoy engaging conversation of service being done and problems they are pursuing. Their shop is very clean and orderly, including the floors. While repairs to vehicles are expensive these days they certainly are competitive with the “big guys shops and certainl a lot more pleasant!
