If the Nissan Sentra is leaking Power Steering fluid, the power steering pump will need to be replaced. This part can be purchased at a salvage yard in most cases. A new power steering pump will cost between $90 and $130 just for the part. A salvage yard will probably charge $50 to $80 for a used one.

Can you still drive your car if rack and pinion is leaking Is disconnecting the belt from the power steering pump an option Do rack and pinion leakages end in complete loss of steering?
Yes, the vehicle is still driveable, assuming total fluid loss from the leak isn't instant. No, disconnecting the belt is not an option, it will just make it really hard to steer and will still leak. If the entire system is drained of fluid then yes, total loss of steering is possible, though unlikely, as long as the fluid reservoir is never allowed to empty. That said, repair should be made sooner than later. The leaking oil is not very enviro-friendly and you will either spend money on fluid now and the repair later or you will spend money on the repair now and not on fluid at all. Do the math.

First thing to do is check your power steering fluid level. If it is full, and that does not fix your problems, check all of your power steering lines and make sure there are no kinked/pinched lines. If none of this fixes it then you should have it looked at by your local mechanic. If none of the above strategies fix it, then there is a slight chance that your Pwr Steering pump is bad.
