When I turn on the car the gas gauge and the temp gauge do not move. The security and no traction warning lights stay on. When I drive the car on the street steering is sluggish, the trans rpms are high, sometimes the car goes to the left while driving. On the radio there it reads anti theft system hit button to clear. When I turn off the car the key will not come out of ignition and I have to use screwdriver to push a button in steering column to release it. One week everything worked great, no warning lights, gauges worked, no high rpms on trans and steering was fine and the key came out of the ignition and nothing on radio about anti theft sys. But everything is not working again and now engine light is on.

Power steering fluid leak on driveway. We knew what it was because our other Srx had been having the same problem. Took into GMC service 3 or 4 times to have seals replaced. Both of our 2006 Srx's have the same problem. We keep steering fluid in our house just in case we need it.
