To top up the power steering fluid on a Ford Focus, open the bonnet to access the components located within the engine bay: on the left side of the bay, you will find the reservoir that contains the coolant. This reservoir must be freed from its housing by loosening the screws that secure it in place; once the reservoir is removed, you will be able to locate the power steering reservoir underneath.

Once the fluid has been added, check that the power steering is functioning correctly.
