Why would you even fill it once?

Find the leak & take care of it

You either take it to a repair shop
or look it over & tighen or replace
the leaking pressure hose.

Neither is all that hard to do

If the steering rack has oil coming out
of the flex boots, which is the first thing
you should have checked already,then you
need a new steering rack

My 2008 Cadillac STS's Service Power Steering System came on the steering is hard to make turns..what's your suggestion? Thank you

Check the power steering fluid and make sure it is at the correct level. Check for leaks underneath the vehicle. Does the vehicle make a groaning noise when the wheels are being turned? If so, there is air in the system. Likely causes are a fluid leak, bad pump, or bad rack and pinion.

How do I find the power steering leak in 1993 Cadi Dev fluid leaks out in about 20 minutes

i would think that it has splash shields under the car as well.
so i would drive it up on ramps remove the bolts holding the shields in place, remove the shields, wash the engine, refill
the steering fluid start the car and look for the leak under the car.
Good luck and don't forget your face shield you Will need it!

You should be leaking something, which would mean you should also be low on a fluid after driving.
Are any of the fluid levels low now ?
You may have to clean off the engine to find the source.

Leaking power steering fluid

Place a sheet of white paper underneath in the proximity of pump and rack. or anything that will show the leak. If you have a set of ramps that would help as well. clean underneath and roll up on ramps check for leaks while running. Or if you have jack stands , puy on that and have someone turn lock to lock while you look for any leaks. I wouldnt just start throwing parts at it

I have a toyota 1996 camry and I notice that it is very hard to steer and turn the steering wheels. i also notice that there was little or no power steering fluid in the container.

SR you just found the problem a leak in the power steering system, check the floor were you park the car every day, there steering fluid by the driver side the problem is the steering rack, there is fluid by the engine passenger side, pressure line, banjo fitting, return line, and also steering rack, the best thing to do is clean the oily area, refill reservoir drive it and check for a fresh leak.

Might just be a loose connection on the power steering hoses. You'll need to get under (BE CAREFUL) your car or get it up on a car hoist. You or a mechanic, should be able to trace where the leak is and either tighten the connections or replace the hose. Cold weather brings on leaks ! !
I don't think the brake vibration has anything to do with it. Brake vibration usually means the brake rotors are warping. Common problem. Have you have your brakes checked lately? Might be time for new pads and rotors.
Good Luck
