1. If it is old enough, it is time to replace the control cartridge.

2. Check your supply stops under the counter, check that they are both supplying full pressure.

Kohler Fairfax kitchen faucet has low flow pressure. Any suggestions? It's the faucet, not the water getting to the faucet that has the low pressure.

First thing to check is if it has a strainer on the spout that has debris. The second thing is if you have a sprayer attachment the diverter valve is a chronic problem with kitchen faucets.

Just lost pressure. Only a very small stream of water comes out, hot or cold. All other faucet in the house work fine. It is about 1 1/2 years old. R10433-CP

First try the tip ariator. it can plug up. then you have to check the inlet system, which includes shut off valves, hoses to the faucet and the cartridge. It is the cartridge that has the small openings, but shut off valve seat material falls back into the feed channel. I usually remove cartridge, cover with a towel and turn on feed water briefly. Often I get little pieces.

Water volume has been getting very slow

Could be a blockage in the valves and check any filters any where in line.some sinks in kitchen have a filter under sink and check valve to make sure they are opened all the way.

Low stream

these faucets have a single handel, and have a cartage that can be taken out and cleaned. Low water pressure is caused by minerals in the water to build up in the cartage and slow down water flow.
