Where do you add power steering fluid on a 2001 mercury cougar?

To add power steering fluid to a 2001 Mercury Cougar, follow these steps:

1. Locate the power steering fluid reservoir. It is usually located on the passenger side of the engine compartment, near the firewall. It is a clear plastic container with a black cap.

2. Check the fluid level. The fluid should be between the "FULL" and "ADD" marks on the reservoir.

3. If the fluid level is low, add enough fluid to bring it up to the "FULL" mark. Use only power steering fluid that meets the specifications recommended in the owner's manual.

4. Replace the cap on the reservoir.

5. Start the engine and let it run for a few minutes. This will circulate the fluid and help to eliminate any air bubbles.

6. Check the fluid level again. If it has dropped, add more fluid to bring it up to the "FULL" mark.

That's it! Adding power steering fluid is a simple task that can be done in just a few minutes.
