2007 Pontiac Grand Prix repeated power steering problems
Asked by Guru2WMGC Feb 23, 2020 at 08:39 PM about the 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix GXP
Question type: Maintenance & Repair
For now the fifth time in two years, the rack and pinion has gone out. In addition
during the two year period the pressure hoses have been replaced twice and
power steering pump has been replaced once. The rack and pinion fails each
time after about 2500 miles. Any ideas?

Are you using power steering fluid or transmission fluid? If you've been using transmission fluid, that's your problem. It's not the same!! Hope that helps! Jim
e have only been using GM approved power steering fluid. It was first thing we thought when initial failure occurred. (i.e., someone had used transmission fluid). Thanks for taking time to respond. Much appreciated.
You're welcome. Glad to help! Maybe buy from a different parts source. Years ago I had repeated starter failures on my 66 Cadillac. They had all come from the same parts store. I finally bought a Delco rebuilt starter and had no more trouble with it. Hope that helps! Jim
