so i got off work and it was raining and behind my work we have this huge puddle when ever it rains so of course i go through it. Then im like hmm that was fun time to do it again so i go to pull a U Turn and i had very limited steering like hardly any at all im like oh ****! so i pop the hood see if i can hear/see anything which i couldn't so i go and pull the steering wheel to see if it fixed its self and it did.


so my question is what would cause this and has anyone else had a similar problem also anything i should check for?

 

did you check the power steering fluid?

 

Sounds like the belt got wet and was slipping for a minute. All is well.

 

ok kool thx

 

^^ yeah, the belt got wet and it was slipping on the power steering pump most likely.

 

LOL.. Those of you from the serpintine belt generation wouldn't know this happens. LOL.. us old guys experienced this often back in the day.
