Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2003 dodge grand caravan that was purchased in december of 2004. i noticed that the power steering was making a humming noise. turning, and idling. i also noticed that it was sporadic and would go on for days and then one day would not make a sound. i have taken it to the dealer and they told me the power steering fluid was low. i checked it many times and it was fine. they told me that the power steering needed to be flushed and there should be no reason for power steering to be flushed. i am seriously concerned that something terrible is going to happen with this issue. i have an extended warranty and the dealer said that it is not anything that needs to be replaced. i don't feel good about this at all!!! we are about at 54,000 miles and this started happening about 8 months ago or so. *jb
