Complaint received via E-mail. We had the power steering pump changed four times. On 7/22/03, we brought the van into westway Dodge because it made a loud noise when turning. They conducted technical service bulletin 19-006-02 and installed a longer power steering hose. On 7/31/2003, we again brought it in to westway, because the power steering pump was making a moaning sound. They diagnosed it as low pressure output, and replaced the power steering pump. On September. 15, 2003 we brought it in for the power steering coolant line recall. After that time, the dealer advised us that it was still making noise, we experienced continued noise. At times, it was difficult to turn. November 26, 2004, we took our van to dealer for upper power steering pump recall.
