Came across this photo and it reminded me of a conversation Jim and I had this past weekend. While driving home from the camper we came across an older vehicle that was similar to his Dad's Chrysler Fury III, that Jim had while we were dating (oh so many years ago). In our hometown, it was common to "scoop the loop" with our friends. Of course, the cars were packed with as many people as they would hold. The Fury was one of those vehicles! With its two bench seats, it was a great time! Many cars and trucks, back in the day, "needed" two people to steer!

Is it getting hard to steer your vehicle? Have you found yourself needing to add power steering fluid at times? As power steering fluid gets old it starts to break down. Your steering becomes sluggish and less responsive. In this case a power steering fluid flush is needed to get the old fluid and contaminants out and new fluid in. If you find yourself adding power steering fluid, then of course, you have a leak somewhere. Minimally you would want to get the leak fixed and top off the fluid. But at Bob's Auto we most likely would recommend a power steering fluid flush. Particularly if any components or parts were needed as part of the repair. This flush is an important maintenance service that will save you money in the long run. And, you don't have to wait until you have a steering issue or leak! On average, manufacturers recommend this fluid flush every 40,000-80,000 miles. Check your owner's manual for your specific vehicle.
