Description of the problem	The first time my power steering when out i had stopped to do something. Got back in my jeep and thought i had a flat because it was so hard to turn the wheel. Got out to look and everything was fine. Got back in, drove it around a neighborhood street and steering returned to normal. Had a mechanic top off the power steering fluid and was fine for months. Yesterday was leaving to got to the store and just before i got out onto a busy hwy the power steering stopped working. This time i could not budge it. I call my mechanic friend. By the time he got there the steering was normal again. He checked the level and was fine. If i had gotten out onto the hwy and this happened i would have been a sitting duck.
