Toyota Corolla 1.3 esteem 2014 model: Power steering light comes on when turn on the ignition and when driving.

This says it does have a fluid reservoir? Some electric power steering just has an electric pump as a opposed to a mechanical pump driven by the serpentine belt.

Buick Regal supercharger 1998, while driving along the steering wheel tighten hard to turn, after pouring power steer fluid under the hood, the temperature light came on,the car ran hot, no smoke.

Do you mean the engine overheat warning? The power steering problem is most likely a defective steering rack, they always act up when hot due to internal seal leakage and fluid bypassing the seal.

My suburban power steering belt popped is it ok to drive it

Sometimes your power steering pump operates your power brakes so be aware your brakes may not work properly. It will be VERY hard to steer so just drive it to be repaired ASAP.

It's very cold outside, my battery light is on and it's hard to steer my car?

Are you sure that you don't have power steering? It sounds to me like you have a leak in your power steering and low on fluid. The battery light is usually an indication that your alternator is not charging.

Battery light on - steering hard

My gut reaction is you have a slipping or a missing belt. Belts drive both the alternator (no power = battery light on) and hard to steer (belt drives power steering pump).

Open the hood and check it out.
