Power Steering dead? Need Skilled Advice.

Power Steering dead? Need Skilled Advice.
Thanks for looking, all. :smile:
Driving along at 35mph & suddenly she was quite hard to steer, - obviously no power steering.
MINI Roadside came to get her & the mechanic said she "felt odd, not perfect" when lining her up to load.
Any guess or diagnosis as to what this could be, - caused it &/or whether warranty will cover it since she's under 50K miles?
Thanks in advance!

It happened to my '02 a couple of years ago. Click here to read the NAM archives about my "incident" . It was repaired under warranty and it is still working after another 25k+ miles.
There have been a lot of similar reports. In early '02, the Power Steering pump shared a fuse with the main engine fan, causing much consternation. People have ingested road debris (like platic bags) into the fan and many have added an aftermarket grill over the fan. Personally I use a full skid pan.
