1 Power Steering Hose, Piping, And Connections problem

Failure Date: 12/20/2001

Power steering rack & pinion gear and high pressure power steering hose begain to leak at about 70,000 miles. Dealer said these items need to be replaced. Now Toyota has issued a new part number for the power steering gear, which leads me to believe they realized there was a problem with the original part. 70,000 is way to early for such a failure. The repair is very costly. Parts alone for the repair are about $1400. The manufacturer should compensate.
