A fluid connector for connecting fluid conduit to a component in the presence of an electrolyte solution includes a connector body and sacrificial anode. The connector body defines an internal recess. The sacrificial anode can be press-fitted into the internal recess and circumscribed by the connector body. The sacrificial anode, which is constructed of a material that is configured to be consumed over a life of the component to prevent or delay corrosion of the connector body due to contact with the electrolyte solution, may be constructed of aluminum, magnesium, zinc, or other active metals. A fluid system for use in the presence of the electrolyte solution includes the component, fluid conduit, a pump, and the fluid connector. A vehicle includes the fluid system and a vehicle body. The component may be a steering gear assembly in some embodiments.
