Description of the problem	The pressurized lower power steering fluid hose is inadequately clamped at the cooler unit and is of insufficient length, resulting in the hose loosening and eventually disconnecting. This causes a loss of all power steering assist. Upon the advice of other owners who have suffered catastrophic steering loss, i inspected the lower hose connection in my driveway and found it had come partially disconnected. I had to reattach the hose and secure it with a traditional worm-style hose clamp.
