Power steering problems?

Had the hood open yesterday and noticed fluid pooled up in the cap for the power steering pump... fluid level seems fine (no I have not messed with it in any way) and no problems while driving the truck.

You probably messed with it Chase. . If you don't have any problems while driving, I would wipe it off and see if it returns.

You should try to replace your cap and if that works I will replace mine.....LOL. Mine did this after I did a flush I put a little to much fluid in. It seems to have stopped since I removed some fluid.
