Hello, The power steering pump may have failed, the belt may be broken, or the power steering gear may have failed. If there is no leak on the ground, I would look for the belt first, then I would be concerned about the pump, then the gear. These can both be tested before replacement, and it should be mentioned that the power steering pump would be screeching if there was a lack of fluid.
