Consumer Description

AFTER BEING PARKED IN GARAGE ALL NITE I NOTICED THE FLOOR WAS WET AS I WAS ABOUT TO LEAVE FOR WORK. I CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL AND POWER STEERING FLUID AND NOTICED THE POWERING FLUID WAS LOW AND REPLACED THE FLUID THAT HAD LEAKED OUT. A FEW DAYS LATER MORE POWER STEERING FLUID HAD LEAKED OUT SO I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE RACK AND PINION. HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS PROBLEM OR HAS THERE BEEN A RECALL? *TR
