1 Power Steering Hose, Piping, And Connections problem

Failure Date: 06/04/2001

While traveling at approximately 45 mph steering became very loose and difficult to control while brakes suddenly became mushy and increased stopping distance. Dealership examined vehicle and determined that a clamp that holds hydraulic fluid hose to frame was missing, which allowed the hose to move under hood, causing hose to rupture. Also, a stabilizer bar was not put in this vehicle to assist with steering control. Please provide any additional information/attachments. *note: the dealership mentioned to consumer that this problem occurred in one other vehicle.
