HELP!!! :( Power Steering?!

[KSX]

Long story short, hit a deer, collision shop fixed it and repaired all the damage said it was just cosmetic except radiator support mounts which were replaced they also flushed the power steering and re-filled it, now it's making this noise, they said there is probably some air in the lines and they can flush it again.. thoughts?! It's loudest when it's turned all the way to right or left.. Help!!!!!!!!

Yes, air in the power steering will cause a noise. They don't need to flush, just follow the procedure for letting the air out and putting in more fluid.

Who are these idiots that they don't know how to do this? It's not a Camaro specific procedure!!!!

That would be the dumb collision shop I took it too, sad for the reviews they got especially working on higher end cars.. Sad.. :|

When you check the fluid, does it look normal? If air is present, you will be able to see small bubbles, kinda frothy looking!

Yeah the Dealer said they saw some bubbles in it.

Sometimes, it takes a while to get the air out. After you drive the car, let it sit overnight, recheck your fluid level before starting the car the next am. Eventually the air will work itself out.
