As my wife was backing our Ford Windstar into the driveway, a spray of hot oil came from the driver side tire and hit me on the right leg not serious but turned my leg red for a short time. Appears to be power steering fluid as she finished backing up the vehicle into the driveway, the car was making a horrible groaning noise. Have added a couple of ounces of power steering fluid into the resevoir. Will drive or maybe have vehicle towed to repair shop.
