Power steering pump - vehicle is 4 years old and has only 42,000+ miles and the pump dropped fluid and quit working. I was in traffic on the highway during failure and it posed a definite safety risk as it made it almost impossible to maintain control of the vehicle. After researching the issue, it is apparent this is a common problem for these vehicles and a recall should be issued.
