Power steering fluid leak !! on these vehicles their is insufficient clearance between the power steering pump reservoir & the lower radiator hose connection at the engine block !! this is causing the reservoir to crack or melt & fluid to leak & blow all under the vehicle !! this is a real fire danger due to the exhaust converter being within 3 ft of the power steering !! lets not forget that this exhaust converter runs at approximately 2000 deg f. Inside !! the Dodge corp . Esquires you to pay a $50. 00 dol. Core charge on these pumps !! this is because they want them back & not out for the n. H. T. S. A . To get hold of this !! these parts a not cheap !! $269. 00 for pump , plus $50. 00 core charge $6. 99 p/s fluid & $200. 00 labor to replace pump asm. !! they want aell you the pump reservoir by itself , they only service it with a complete asm. !! if someone has not been hurt by a fire from this vehicle they have been lucky !! this is really a fire danger due to the exhaust converter being so close !! I sure wouldn't leave a child in this vehicle by himself due to the fluid could ignite & engulf this vehicle !! I put 10 mph. In the vehicle speed at time of incident , because I cant give you a real mph . For this fluid leak from power steering !! the power steering reservoir is to close on drivers side of engine block next to the left front engine mount !!.
