My car is leaking power steering how to fix it?

With hydraulic power steering.
You may have a pressure hose and return hose, if problem with hose, you replace it.
I can't rule out a problem with rack&pinion?
Your steering shaft probably attaches to rack&pinion assembly.

How can I replace the power steering hoses?

Power steering hoses are a dealer only part. Meaning you can't get the hose assemblies from an auto parts store. Replacing them isn't too difficult if you have the correct tools to do the job.

Power steering fluid leak in 99 Toyota Corolla

look for split in the hard line where fluid is leaking. If you see split, change the line only. make sure power steering reservoir is filled and rack and pinion is full (charge with steering wheel left/right motion). You should be able to remove wheel and inside wheel panel to see power steering fluid shooting out of any hole. There is hydraulic pressure on the lines.

Oil leak hose coming off oil pump image

I think that you are refering to the power steering pump an the oil hose is leaking from a fitting or a hole in the pipe. Check the tension of the fittings and tighten if loose . Take the vehicle to a steering specialist to determine the exact position of the leak.

I have a 2005 Kia Spectra, I know that i need the brakes done but could this be affecting my steering. I had a very hard time turning the steering wheel in any direction. Any suggestions?

The brake system will not cause the steering wheel to turn hard. The only steering problem bad brakes will create is pulling one way or the other. Check the power steering system.

I need to rplace tke power steering hose on a 2000 kia sephia

we tried fixing the old power steering hose, finally just had it taken off and another made up by an auto shop, cost $65 to have one made. very easy to fix, just undo at each end. this is a pressure hose though so make sure and get the same kind made.

The the power steering hose is also refered to as the high pressure hose if that is the one thats leaking it's usually easy to find out. While you watch for leaks on the hoses have the car running and have someone turn the steering wheel all the way right or left til it stops it usually will squeal, that is when the hose is at the highest pressure if it's the one leaking you should see it
