Ok i parked my car last night at a friends house and everything was fine. I come by to get it this morning and the wheels wont turn unless i get the car moving at like 5mph. It got really cold last night for the first time in a month, but would that cause the power steering to go out? The fluid level is fine to.

And Im so used to turnin on a dime too.

 

I have no insight as to why, but your power steering is definately gone.

 

Belt didn't snap off did it?

 

check the power steering belt. power steering pump could be gone as well. time to start troubleshooting.

 

your power steering fluid froze.

 

ya ur pump could have froze , or ur belt could have come off or broke off so check that.

 

belt still there and moves fine when engine on. I might have to take it to a mechanic today cus i got to have this fixed before i go drivin on interstate again.

 

nonsense... eat your spinach and get some dumbbells

does it freeze?

you may want to let the car run for a little while before you start driving it until you get it fixed.

Stupid for thinking you need PS and considering taking it to a mechanic to repair?

 

That sounds about right...
