Power steering

Asked by Darryl Feb 04, 2018 at 02:21 PM about the 1997 Toyota Camry XLE

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I think I’m having an issue with my power steering
pump every time I start the car and run it for a little
while or when I’m driving it seems to be OK for a lil
while but after a few minutes an turns it’ll start to
get stuck turning mid turn left some times and right
some times  and it’ll gradually make a squeaking
and groaning noise if I turn to for or even mid way it
varies as I’m driving or sitting in the drive way is my
power steering pump going bd?? Or could it  be
some other part because I still have a full reservoir
of power steering fluid but I keep hearing the noise
so is it a leak or something ? Or the pump it’s self
going bad ...
