Problem overview

Some Buick Enclave owners report experiencing potential power steering hose leaks despite no visible fluid or stains. These issues may stem from a hidden leak within the hose that prevents external fluid from accumulating, or a slow leak that allows fluid to evaporate before it becomes noticeable. Additionally, the location of the leak could be in areas not easily visible, such as higher in the engine compartment, complicating detection. Some owners have noted that the leak may be intermittent, only occurring under specific conditions like vehicle motion or system pressure. It is recommended that owners seek a detailed inspection by a dealership or qualified mechanic to accurately identify the source of the leak, as addressing these concerns promptly is crucial to prevent further damage to the power steering system and ensure vehicle safety and performance.
