Maval 96499M Power Steering Pump

Maval Remanufactured Power Steering Pump 96499M

The Maval 96499M remanufactured power steering pump is built for 2006-2009 Ford Fusion and 2006-2009 Mercury Milan applications that require a direct replacement pump with a press-on pulley and threaded outlet connection. This remanufactured power steering pump is configured with an aluminum housing, one outlet, and no reservoir, making it a focused OE-style service part for steering system repair.

Maval’s Remanufactured Power Steering Pump line is aimed at restoring hydraulic steering performance with application-specific fitment and component transfer requirements called out for the vehicle platform. For the Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan, the original sensor must be transferred to the replacement pump to help maintain proper system operation.

Detailed Product Overview

Part number 96499M is a remanufactured power steering pump for Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models from 2006 through 2009. It uses an aluminum housing, one outlet, and a threaded outlet attachment type to match the hydraulic steering layout on the listed vehicles. The pump is supplied with a pulley and uses a press-on pulley attachment, while the inlet uses a hose barb connection. Because the pump is equipped with a sensor, that sensor and related components must be transferred from the original unit to the replacement pump.

Common Steering Problems This Part Can Address

• Loss of power steering assist
• Whining or groaning noise from the steering pump
• Hydraulic steering fluid pressure issues
• Leakage at the pump shaft seal or outlet connection
• Wear-related pump performance decline on Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models

Installation Notes and Tips

Before installation, transfer the original sensor and associated components exactly as required for the Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan application. Incorrect transfer can create high-pressure conditions that may damage the shaft seal. Verify hose routing, outlet thread engagement, and pulley alignment before returning the vehicle to service. Confirm the replacement pump matches the original connection style and steering system layout before installation.

Quality Assurance

Maval remanufactured steering components are rebuilt for application-specific replacement use and are identified here by part number 96499M. Verify fitment against the vehicle’s original pump configuration and sensor setup before installation.
