It's difficult to determine the exact cause of your power steering issue without performing a thorough diagnostic test. However, if you're experiencing a loss of power steering, it could be due to a variety of issues, including a failing power steering pump, a worn out rack and pinion, a leak in the power steering system, or a problem with the power steering control module.
In some cases, if the power steering pump is the issue, replacing it may resolve the problem. If the rack and pinion are worn out, they will need to be replaced. If there is a problem with the control module, it will also need to be replaced.
