On January 4th, my local Dodge dealer took care of the CP4 pump replacement.
At around 170 miles into my weekend trip (Central Oregon), the power steering pump reservior become low causing the whirring sound.
I topped off the reservoir only to find it becoming low again 60 or so miles later.
I'm back home and have called for an appointment.
Here's my concern.
This pump operates the power assit steering system, as well as the power brake system.
When the pump vanes make the whirring sound, this can't be good.
I will be taking an approximate 1,000 +/- mile trip in February, and I do not want to have a pump failure.
I am concerned that they should not only correct the leak, but also replace this pump.
What are your thoughts?
