The power steering makes intermittent groaning and screeching noises when the wheel is turned. I've had 2 new power steering pumps installed under warranty with the problem recurring within several thousand miles after repair. I'm scheduled for yet another repair, and think I may have to trade this van for a Hyundai before the warranty expires. This van has had the common problem of a rock taking out the a/c condenser, a non- warranty $840 repair.
