A used Kia Sportage power steering pump carries a median asking price of $193, which is 9% higher than the Honda Pilot at $175. Supply also plays a role: Honda Pilot has 1,499 priced listings versus 445 for Kia Sportage, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.
Grade A (excellent condition) parts make up 79% of Kia Sportage listings compared to 46% for the Honda Pilot, so buyers looking for top-condition units will find more options on the Kia Sportage side.
The Honda Pilot average ($298) runs 70% above its median ($175), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.

Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used power steering pump
- Distinguish between traditional hydraulic belt-driven pumps and electro-hydraulic power steering (EHPS) units with integrated control modules.
- Spin the pulley shaft by hand to check for smooth bearing rotation, lateral shaft play, and inspect the front seal for fluid leaks.
- Verify high-pressure hose fitting connection style (o-ring flare vs banjo bolt) and return line nipple orientation.
- Check whether the pulley is press-fit or bolt-on, and confirm whether the unit includes the reservoir and fluid pressure sensor.
