My Power Steering Went Out Last Night!!!

My Power Steering Went Out Last Night and I'm Angry.. Has anyone else experienced this yet? Also my trunck release is not working properly either. It just makes a clicking noise but doesn't unlatch the trunck. I called the dealer yestarday to let him know and he said it was probably just out of adjustment. I said OK and would bring it by next week and then last night this, whats next?

Yeah I know, It just really Sucks. Do you think the dealer could fix this with a new Power Steering pump in one day?

it seems the trunk sometimes will open when the car is locked and sometimes you have to hit the unlock button on the fob then hit the trunk button on the fob it will pop open? we are still trying to determine if this is a problem or us

Well they have it at the dealer now and he called to tell me that it was tnot the power steering pump but the steering gear box??? what the heck? he said it had a crack in either it or the line going to it but either way no one had the parts to replace it so he called Distribution with no luck either. He said he put in for a STAT express order to get it as soon as possible and he would call me tommorow with the estimated time of arrival. So i guess no car for the Transformers 2 Premier. Darn It! I was really wanting to show it off.

My trunk pop seems to be wacky too..sometimes you hear it try to unlatch the trunk twice when you hit the button on key keyfob. I haven't tried the interior popper yet...
