Consumer Description

MY 2006 DODGE CARAVAN WAS MAKING A NOISE WHEN TURNING SO WHEN I GOT HOME CHECKED POWER STEERING FLUID AND IT WAS LOW. WHEN CHECKED THE NEXT DAY IT WAS LOW AGAIN. SO HAD IT CHECKED OUT AT A GARAGE AND IT WAS LEAKING FROM THE RACK AND PINION. SO IT NOW NEEDS REPLACED. ONLY HAVE 61,000 MILES ON THE CAR AND HAVE NOTICED IT SEEMS TO BE A CONSTANT PROBLEM ON THESES CARS. CALLED A DEALERSHIP ABOUT A RECALL AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NONE AND THERE NEVER WILL BE ONE. CAN'T AFFORD TO REPLACE PARTS JUST YET SO IJUST KEEP ADDING FLUID TILL I CAN GET WORK DONE. BUT AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH DODGE KNOWING THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS AND NOT SEEMING TO CARE ABOUT IT AT ALL. *TR
