Try putting in some PS friction modifier! It worked for me!

Andy W. The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

Ya, mine went last November. Dam thing cost me a fortune, but it gets better, then my powersteering pump went

Apparently I had contaminated the fluid with road debris and the pump seals were done. I was in the middle of Midterms and it was one of the worst times to have car troubles, so I paid the dealer, and lubed up !!

Yep, bought the car from that guy, in nice shape, with two sets of tires.

The car was making noises and leaking fluid for a while, and my mechanic told me the rack went, and to take it to Ford, so I took it to Campbell yesterday. I pulled into
the lot. As I was looking for a parking spot, the car started to smoke. I figured, "well, this is a better time than a few minutes ago." As I was pulling into a spot, there was a loud POP!, and the steering went stiff.
I got out of the car and said "YEAH!!! MADE IT!" and walked into the dealership. on the way in, a guy was laughing at me cheerful demeanour, which I am sure he thought was odd coming from a guy with a smoking car.

Honestly everyone, I am having serious doubts about this car. I travel a lot, and would love the peace of mind a warranty would bring. I was thinking yesterday about leasing an RSX and selling the SVT. talk me out of it!

Cheers,
Phil
