The power steering line has gone out 4 times in three months. I have replaced the line twice and patched twice. I never do it myself but let a a local mechanic or friend take care of it for me. With the last patch job I jacked up the car and took a look for myself. I noticed the way the line is rubbing right against the main exhaust and this where the leak is. I am no mechanic but I would think there should by some type of divider to prevent them from touching. Any help?

Power steering leak pump making noise...dealer won't cover it. I am going to have a buddy fix the hose and hope adding fluid quiets the noisy pump

Power steering line leaks out fluid. Power steering goes away. Can drive car...but is difficult at slow speeds. Pump is ruined. Costly repair. Has now happened 3 times in 2 years. Have been working with my local garage mechanic....now going to chevy dealership to try and fix problem. I have never had this happen with any car I have owned.
