My power steering fluid is leaking out of my 1998 plymouth voyeger. The steering is getting very hard but its turning fine when i put more fluid in. Do you think its a crack or hole somewhere in the line or the pump is bad.

Most of the time the leak is from the high pressure line that runs to the power steering pump. The hose would be all wet. There is a return line right there also but a hole would have to have ben worn into the hose for that to leak. Otherwise it would be coming from the Rack and Pinion steering unit. If coming from there means it's worn and may need to be replaced. Keep the fluid level full until it gets fixed so you don't burn out the pump.
