Hi, it sounds like the steering pump needs looking at or a new replacement pump will have to be fitted.

Testimonial: "Hi thanks for your reply, first time I have used this site. More info: They fitted a new pump recon/rack & various pipework. Next day there was power steering fluid leaking onto the drive, checked fluid level bottle was nearly empty,one of the rubber steering gators was ripped in half the other was twisted badly (probably when they done tracking) anyway the garage took it away again said the new rack was cracked & supposedly fitted another recon/rack. It's still making the groaning noise when turning the steering side to side. This is a big Ford garage (bought car there) at the moment I have hair but soon will have none Grrrr. Again thanks for your help."

Hi Lisa, I'm not certain, but it is possible that the power steering has a separate belt. If the fluid level has remained constant and there are no noticeable leakages, a broken belt is the most likely cause. Regards John

My ford focus power steering went out . I opened the hood and the belt on the left side of the engine next to the power steering . Is that the power steering belt ??

They do not stretch that much. That engine uses a serpentine belt. Something has gone bad that caused the belt to come loose. All pulleys must be inspected to diagnose the problem.

No power steering on 2006 chevy malibu, car got hit on left fr. quater panel thats when the p/s went out wat could it be

Check the belts and fluid? LMAO this is electronic power steering, there is no belt or fluid. This is an electrical problem. GM bulletin says the ignition coil is backfeeding and causing an electrical glich in the steering motor. You have to remember all these electronics are tied together through the computer system. Also these cars have teribble noises in the steerning.

That is a valid question, but you should ask the shop that worked on it. Also do you know that the power steering pump will cure the problem? This remains to be seen....You can check one thing though...Look at the belt/pulley arrangement from the side. any pulley that is not exactly in line with all others, and any wobbling pulley is suspect. Serpentine belts are far less forgiving of these items than were "v" belts.
Good luck
