It seems the power steering is not working when I try to make a right turn. Very difficult to turn the wheel to the right
Turning left and going straight work fine.
I've been told it is probably the steering box.
Could it be something else?
Can I trust a used steering device from a salvage yard?
Has this been a problem on this vehicle?

With only 66k miles on the car I am disappointed in this auto and it's repair history to date - not to mention the peeling chrome wheels.---
I have no problem understanding why Chrysler is in trouble!

Thank you

HI there,

Thank you for the donation,

I would be thinking that this is a steering box problem, as for a wreckers yard box, you should not have a real problem here, but just remember that it is used and you don't know the history of the box, just make sure that they offer some form of limited warranty on it just to be safe.
