I can see that this post has been added months long. Apologize for reviving it(hope you understand). just wanna share my knowledge as pit crew. As far i know power steering is crucial to being able to safely drive a vehicle. Folks may take their power steering for granted because they have never tried to drive a car without it. Usually, cars can be easily steered with just a slight turn of the wheel that requires almost no effort. Without the power steering, the driver could meet a great amount of resistance in turning the wheel. It may be be extremely dangerous to have a vehicle’s power steering suddenly fail, possibly causing a serious accident. Thus, it is always advisable to check it always. if you can’t do it then, you can take your car to local auto service centers and let them solve the issue if any.
