Chrysler 300 Power Steering Cooling

The power steering system making your Chrysler easier to drive is a hydraulic system that employs fluid for performing the mechanical work. The system includes the hydraulic pump that creates pressure needed for steering, but hydraulic fluid can greatly increase its temperature under high loads, which is hazardous to the system. The power steering cooler makes sure that the temperature of liquid remains at the desired level. Essentially, the power steering cooler is a small radiator that works much like its larger counterpart employed by the engine cooling system while providing an effective dissipation of heat into the atmosphere.

As part of the closed-loop system working under high pressure, the power steering cooler should be free from damages and leaks, as they will almost immediately result in system failure. However, the cooler is located at the front end of the vehicle, where it can be provided with the necessary flow of fresh air. Unfortunately, it is exposed there to various threats like flying stones and front collisions. If one of them has impaired your car’s cooler, check out our Chrysler 300 power steering cooling collection to get a new quality replacement.
