Should this happen to a 2003 Toyota Camry already??? I woke up this morning to find all my power steering fluid had leaked out onto the ground. I didn't realize this until I drove a 1/4 down the road and all of a sudden I had no power steering. I immediately went home, opened the hood and found no power steering fluid, PLUS a belt completely off. The belt is has grooves on one side and is about 5-6 feet in diameter.... what is this? How did it come off?
Wow, I completely baffled. This is actually my mothers car who is 73 years old. What if this happened on a dark lonely street with no one around. I trusted Toyota.... now?
Anyway, can anyone give advise as what to do. Do I need a tow to the dealer? What can I expect to pay for repairs? I read somewhere where there has been a problem with a copper nut or screw that has caused this leakage... if so, will this be a free repair?
The car has only 36,0000 miles!!!!
Thanks!
