Power Steering Fluid problems of the 2007 Chevrolet Trailblazer

Power steering lines leaking having to add fluid often.

My Trailblazer sprung a major power steering fluid leak. I lost power steering after coming out of a grocery store, it was -10 degrees outside and I used my autostart while inside the store. I came out and did not have p/s and noticed a large puddle under the car. I looked under the hood when I got home, and the high pressure hose disconnected from where the high pressure hose meets the metal tube before entering the rack.
