Power steering problem

Well not sure if seals blew or if pump is shot on my 2012 F250. I got stuck in soft dirt under the 30 inches of snow we had and till I got out, the power steering was gone. I checked under everything and the reservoir is full, but there appeared to be a little fluid on the pump.

Had it towed to a dealer that can look at it tomorrow. Luckily when I bought it I got an extended warranty on it.

I'm glad you were able to get the truck into the hands of your dealer, Chaosracing. Have you heard back from them today? How many miles are on your rig?

They called this morning to let me know that they were bringing it in to the shop and that since I have a extended warranty it will cost me $100. I only have 23,500 miles on it, just bought it in October with 19,400 miles. Was out of warranty since its a 12.

Havent heard anything since then.

Thanks for responding, Chaosracing; it sounds like your dealer is on top of things. Be sure to come back and tell us how the repair goes tomorrow.

Forgot to update. New pump must have come in quicker because they called at 9:30 in the morning to say it was done. Back to normal again.

Awesome news, Chaosracing! Give me a shout if there's anything I can do to assist in the future.
