have the ignition switch checked not where the key goes fords have a switch that is located on top of the steering colum under the dash when driving the van kinda giggle the key switch or even just sitting in the van in the driveway ford has had many problems with this switch on steering colum

1. your ignition coil has to be tested

Check for Cylinder Misfires
Check Fuel Pressure
Check EGR System
Check for Vacuum leaks
Check TPS Sensor
Change Spark Plugs --every 3 years
Change front O2 Sensors --at 100,000 miles
Check Coolant Sensor --if you have one
Fuel Pump-could be an issue
Change Fuel Filter & Air Filter--every 3 years
Check Trans Fluid--Change every 3 years,as well as Power steering

You have what they call a hydro boost system, the power steering pump give power steering assist, and give power brakes, so if your power steering hose looses fluid you get not power steering and no power brakes, So check the power steering hose for leaks if there is no leaks replace the powersteering pump

It should like you may have a leak if it took a whole litre. Once you fix the leak you may also find the power steering pump still makes noise. This can be repaired by replacing the pump. I hope this helps.

This was a on going problem for the malibu's, there in a factory recall on it but weather it would be good ?? the power steering on these was electric assist which is inline with the steering column, believe me, you will never have a complete loss of steering, it turns into "old school steering" were you need to use a little muscle to turn it. Three places to check for problems are, the 60 amp fuse in the power Distribution box under the hood , Connectors at the assist motor under drivers side dash, or oil pressure switch connector.

power steering fluid does NOT go anywhere near the boot.but when you fitted a new rack did you turn steering wheel fully left and right several times to prime the rack and then check the fluid.....half a quart is a lot of fluid to add to the system (change your mechanic ASAP)MY BICHON COULD DO BETTER....

You've made the correct decision. Let the dealership diagnose the issue. They'll tell you EXACTLY what the problem is and what's needed to fix it (parts, labor, tax, time-frame, etc.).

tap on the back calieper with a hammer to try free the brakes possible the calieber is bad or tap on brake lines to free up any debry may help?

chek the alternator
