* A blown power steering hose: This is one of the most common causes of power steering failure. A power steering hose is responsible for carrying fluid from the power steering pump to the steering rack. If a power steering hose bursts or becomes disconnected, it will cause the system to lose pressure and the steering will become very difficult.
* A failed power steering pump: The power steering pump is responsible for generating the pressure that is needed to assist with steering. If the power steering pump fails, it will cause the steering to become very difficult.
* A damaged steering rack: The steering rack is responsible for turning the wheels when you turn the steering wheel. If the steering rack is damaged, it can cause the steering to become very difficult.
If you have lost all power steering, it is important to have your car towed to a mechanic as soon as possible. Driving a car with no power steering can be very dangerous.
