So I parked the car yesterday and came out to a large puddle on the ground. I know this is electric power steering, and it looks to be leaking from the power steering motor from what I can gather. Anyone have this problem or know of any solutions?

 

hard to say anything specific based on the information given.

post some pics. include the engine size.

 

It's a 2.4 engine. I don't think it should be leaking PS fluid since it's the electric power steering system, but it's right in the area of the power steering motor. If it's tranny fluid, I don't see where is coming from.

Not the best pic, but you can see where the drip is.

 

 

maybe its the exposure; it looks more like dexcool coolant than dexron p/s or trans fluid. hard to say without being there.
leaks flow down and back...so what is above and forward of the drip?

 

I got brave after you mentioned that and gave it a little taste. Definitely coolant. I'll have to jack it up again and try to trace it better. Thanks for the advice, the location of it was throwing me off. On to the next step!
