2001 Chevrolet Impala. Power steering hard lines on passenger side near radiator have been partially severed by the attaching fender well cover plate. Car has 89k miles. Both hard lines will have to be replaced. It appears that over time, the cover plate rubbed into the hardlines and punctured the line resulting in complete reservoir drainage. Car very difficult to steer for my wife who was able to get home.
