What It Helps Fix

• Hard steering at low engine speed
• Whining or noisy power steering pump operation
• Loss of hydraulic assist after pump wear or internal leakage
• Inconsistent steering effort caused by valve or flow issues
• Fluid leaks from aged seals or worn pump components

Installation Notes

• Verify pulley fit before installation; a loose pulley fit usually means the pulley must be replaced.
• Flush and bleed the system during installation to remove contamination and trapped air.
• Check the flow control valve and spring if assist is limited at higher engine speed.
• Inspect steering components for binding if steering effort remains uneven after replacement.
• Use OE-specified fluid and follow the vehicle service procedure for the 2012-2016 Chevrolet Impala and Impala Limited.

Quality Assurance

Each unit is remanufactured to meet or exceed OE performance targets and is computer-tested before release. Cardone’s process also reduces raw material and energy use compared with manufacturing a new part, supporting a more resource-efficient repair.
