The steering started to act up in Oct 2015 with a slow leak. Jan 4 2016 power steering quit, had to replace all parts of the steering (pump and gear box). My mechanic has said it is a common problem and to keep all receipts, so far there is no Canadian recall or class action, I wish we could jump onto the USA suit.
Well I left my home went about 1/2 mile and no steering in middle of turn. Not to mention I just bought the car 6/11/2013 with 50000 miles on it. Now it's in the shop so far going on 3rd week and I went to check and see what was up. The man tells me oh yea we go it fixed but its at another garage for transmission leak so here I go to the other shop. They are done and I know the mechanic he tells me yeah they changed my steering pump but while he was working on transmission it leaked around 1 qt of power steering fluid on ground he had told other garage about it and they told him they didn't feel like fixing it. All I can say is if I get it back and see it leaking lemon law here I come this is a hazardous problem that needs fixing . If I don't total it next time because from what I read it will happen again. but we will see I will keep informed.
