Help please
I just bought my 2011 camaro 2 weeks ago. I am away on vacation and my power steering pump was making a noise. I pulled over and put power steering fluid in it, but I noticed it was leaking. I am 2 hours from the nearest garage. Can I drive it there. Im not sure what to do. Any advice would be great

It depends how much it's leaking, if you think it's leaking a SMALL amount and you want to buy two or three bottles and pull over every half hour to check it, you may be okay. if it runs dry you will cause more damage then the tow will cost you. if you don't know how significant the leak is, I would spend the money and flat bed it. was it empty when you filled it, if so the damage may already be done. if the noise did not go away after you added the fluid, it's likely you need a new pump
More importantly, don't you still have a warranty, if so they should cover the tow to a local Chevy dealer |
