Finally did an oil change after having the dealer do them. Found leakage on the under carriage. After following the leak back turns out the crimp connection of the hose to the connector for the power steering hose is leaking. less than 40,000 miles and this hose is leaking at the crimp point. definitely a manufacturer problem. Never in 50 years have I have a power steering hose fail as this one. I can't be sure but I am sure its been leaking since before my warranty was up but of course the dealer has idiots working the oil change area. Would have been nice as this is going to cost 3 to 400 dollars to replace.
