Power Steering Box Dirty

Of course the hose is going to pop off! It's under a lot of pressure and heat! By design, the power steering hose, connectors, and ferrules are pressure fitted together (called crimping) by using a hydraulic press.

Either go to your local parts store (NAPA, Pep Boys, Auto Zone) or parts department of the Dodge/Chrysler dealership and purchase & install a new hose.

You may have even burned out the entire hydraulic servo system.

Better yet, I strongly advise having a certified ASE mechanic check out the entire system; and let them install the new hose since the power steering system will have to be bled.

Lives depend on it.

I just finished replacing mine.

Normally buy a box of orings all sizes sure too get suitable o rings in it

The pressure hose is leaking due to forgetting to install the o-ring. You should disconnect pressure hose install o-ring then tighten!

the high pressure hose has a pressure fitting the low has a clamp

replace the power steering sensor, 30 bucks at NAPA, I had same problem and now I have O2 sensors bad because the power steering fluid pressurized the electrical lines and killed the O2 sensors

is it a leaking hose or the pump iteslf? if you do it yourself iys about 80 if you have a shop do it its several hundred dollars
