Power steering comes on 20 minutes after I start the engine and drive a few miles. Has given me apt of close calls with hitting curbs or awkward turns. Try to find the part to replace it, but most websites say that my car has a good chance of being recalled. Took to a Subaru dealership they said it's not recalled. But nobody will fix or sell me parts due to 'recalls' precautions.
