Your vehicle has electric power steering, it does not use fluid, this is from the owners manual;

**"Your vehicle is equipped with an Electric Power-Assisted Steering (EPAS) system. There is no fluid reservoir to check or fill.**"

You may have a steering system warning light on, the steering system will have to be repaired by a professional.
