So over the weekend I became a dangerous driver, almost side swiping people while turning into parking lots. My Power Steering started to act up and with pressure applied to the brake or no pressure applied to the gas pedal I had no power steering. Of coarse this was intermittent. After the first time I realized I needed to slow down sooner and giver gas throughout the turn.

Got her in to a dealer yesterday and I figured I would hear the normal, "We couldn't reproduce the issue" however to my surprise the Service Manager asked if this only happened in 4X4 mode or in 2X4 mode since there have been a lot of this issue in 4X4.

She was fixed yesterday and the SM said that the power steering pump was not strong enough so it was replaced. My Liberty only has 3800 KM so I am hoping this doesn't become an on going issue or I will have to rethink the extended warranty.
