• Steering wheel for excessive free-
play
. Check the simplest probable
causes first: (A) unequal tire
pressures; (B) loose cap nuts; (C)
bent crosstube; or (D) lack of
lubrication
If these checks do not reveal the problem,
or if you correct them and still have a
steering problem, take your vehicle to an
authorized dealer for evaluation.
Check Power Steering Fluid Level
CAUTION
When adding fluid, be sure to use fluid
of
the same type. While many fluids
have the same description and intend-
ed purpose, they should not be mixed
due to incompatible additives. Mixing
incompatible fluids may lead to equip-
ment damage.
NOTE
Before removing reservoir cap, wipe
the
outside of the cap so that no dirt or
debris falls into the reservoir.
Check the fluid level. Use the following
procedure:
1.
Park the vehicle on level ground
and turn the engine off.
2. Open the hood.
3. Check the fluid level on the
reservoir.
