Check your power steering lines. They like to fail.

Also, try not to run the car without power steering fluid. This could lead to pump failure.

Ditto, known problem, beaten to it again by the master!

yea ive actually had to have this replaced twice...like 3 months after the first hose burst, another one went....Power steering fluid ended up covering my car when the first one went, the hood, the whole drivers side of the car, the front rim, whole engine bay, etc...Luckily i got her home safe...
