They DO NOT have a power steering pump. This type of vehicle has an electric motor under the steering column that controls steering.

SOURCE: where do you add power steering fluid?

The HHR does not use power steering fluid. The power steering is strictly an electric motor attached to the steering column under the dash. If you are having problems, you may need to have the motor replaced.

However, before you do, check the following fuses:

Underhood fuse #1 - 60A
Inside console fuse #19 - 2A

Either with kill the steering and may have been blown if you (or an uninformed mechanic) have jumped the car incorrectly.

SOURCE: where do you put the power steering fluid in a chevy hhr 2006 model

the power steering fluid resevoir is located on the passenger side of the engine compartment near the fire wall. mostimes in order to fill it you have to remove the altenator to remove the fill cap to add the fluid.

You do not add any. If the steering system is leaking,you repair the problem. It is a sealed system other than a removable fill cap. It does not use fluid in the sense you ever loose any

SOURCE: My Power Steering fluid is low, I want to add

The standard 2006 Malibu has EPSA (electronic power steering assist). There is no reservoir. Power steering function is accomplished by an electronic motor attatched to the lower steering column.

Where do you add the power steeering fluid to a 2006 chevy hhr?

If you're having power steering problems fluid is not the answer. I have a 06' HHR just started having a problem too. There is no fluid as it is electric assist and not hydraulic. The motor is located behind the knee panel just below the steering wheel. Two screws along the bottom edge release the trim panel. There is another white panel behind that secured with four screws. Once removed you will see the electric power steering motor. A somewhat easy fix if you are sure it is the motor. Loose fuses, connectors, and corroded ground wires wreak havoc with these cars and cause intermittent failures. Check all these first especially if there are no stored codes before spending bigger bucks on the motor which doesn't always fix the problem from what I've read online. -Mike-

No fluids what so ever are consumed on any vehicle

If you have to add, you have a leak that needs attention

Your best to stop by a repair shop, that can show you

You have to use the correct fluids in the correct places
