Power Steering Fluid problems of the 2006 Chevrolet Impala

Winter of 2016 I lost power steering while I was driving 60mph. My wheel was almost like it was froze and took all I had to pull off the road. I was leaking power steering fluid I was told by a motorist who stoped to help. He said drive it to nearest mechanic. I did and was told it was the hose had burst. He fixed it. Then 4 mo later car was whinning and lost steering again. This time pump was bad and other hose was leaking. Fixed it. Now driving on a cold day and lost steering again!!! fluid all over ground and horrible whine again. I am a disabled 55 year old woman and its so nhard to steer car. Im very lucky I didnt crash. As well as being on a very strict income of ssi disability and unable to afford getting same thing fixed. Itsvery upsetting. I checked for mrecal and there isnt any for this. Please help with info on what I can do next. Thank you.

1) car is hard to turn stationary & while turning, steering knuckles--2) power steering whining & just started losing fluid,--3) drivers seat stopped being able to adjust to different positions--4) oil leak on engine--5) paint on trunk & surrounding area is is flaking off.

Power steering failed. Upon starting vehicle one morning, had little to no steering power. Had power steering pump replaced, three times, first pump failed, second pump failed also. (mechanic source for parts bad). Hole in hose also. Problem has occurred again. Must now have rack and pinion replaced, power steering fluid leaking in that area.

Observed a fluid leak near right front wheel. The leak is power steering fluid. Found the leak to be caused by a hole in the aluminum power steering return/cooling line. The line was leaking caused by the plastic wheel well liner rubbing a hole in the aluminum tube.

I purchased my 2006 Impala ss brand new in 2006. I've been a loyal gm customer my whole life. At 99,000 started experiencing transmission issues, slipping,and hard shifting. . . At 101,000 miles I was driving down the highway and my transmission stopped working. I refinanced my car to rebuild the transmission for $2,200 . After the rebuild transmission was working ok. Then at 122,000 miles it stopped working again. . . It was snowing and I was stranded in the turn lane of a road with a speed limit of 55mph. . . I turned off my car let the engine cool down and back on at least 20 times. . . My car moved about 200 feet each time. . . An hour later I got back to my house that was 5miles from the failure. I cant afford to fix it now and I am still paying for the car. Its been sitting in my yard for 10 months. This issue is very dangerous and needs to be resolved. I also received a recall for my power steering hose, got it fixed and the brackets came loose from my frame causing my steering to get very hard. I pulled over and checked my power steering fluid at walmart and it was empty. I filled it and everything was working. The next morning I had no power steering again. . . My hose had rubbed on my frame making a hole. I went to the store and bought more power steering fluid but after I put it in my steering was making a loud sound and didn't turn well. I think it was damaged due to the leak. I too have a loud clicking sound coming from my dashboard when I turn on my car. I was told by the dealership it was the vent flap motor . . . $750 dollars to repair. . . Part is only $65 the rest is labor. . . Also when I first bought my car I had to get all 4door windows replaced (under warranty) due to improper window guide adjustment. And my automatic trunk release works off and on, my keyless entry only works 5 feet from my car with new batteries,and all tire pressure sens. Went bad$100 each help.

I was having problems with my car and had to have it towed to the dealership. The power steering fluid had leaked out of the hose and the clamp needed to be replaced. At that time I paid for those repairs of replacing those parts. Months later a recall was sent to me for replacement of the same parts that I had already paid for and had repaired. I would like my money refunded.

Pulling out of driveway steering was hard pulled back in and noticed fluid on the pavement which ended up being power steering fluid. Inspected under the hood and found the leak was coming from the return hose from the power steering pump. Took to local Chevrolet dealer and it was fixed. After I had my car back for 6 days the same hose blew a hole in it in a different spot. Took to the dealer two days ago and they replaced it again picking up tomorrow. I constantly hear about other having the same problem on chevy's mainly Impalas' and it seems to be primarily the 2006 model. This is ridiculous that there is no recall on this. I've called gm and they are no help at all and seem to just ignore this ongoing problem. Something has to be done about this before someone is seriously hurt in an accident due to the loss of power steering.

Moaning noise when turning at low speeds, and loud shrieking noise when accelerating. Thought it was power steering pump &/or alternator. I look under hood and ground ps fluid on ground, ps fluid was leaking out of the bellows boot on the rack and pinion. Took to dealer and was told the spool seal and the input seal were leaking in the rack and pinion. Luckily I was able to get the rack replaced under warranty. But 1 month later, the new rack developed a leak from the same input seal that was bad on the oe rack. Dealer replaced it again under warranty.
