1 Power Steering Hose, Piping, And Connections problem

Failure Date: 12/03/2007

Car was leaking power steering fluid so we kept on adding more until we could save enough money to get the problem fixed(around $350. 00, no small fee for a working family!)then, the smoking got worse until one day it just caught on fire! I couldn't put it out with an extinguisher, the fire department had to put it out and now the car is totaled! can we still get a recall?.
