Power steering rack
I replaced my power steering rack last year in Sept because it was leaking out of the rubber boots. Now I have the same problem again. It is leaking at an incredible rate. Yesterday I filled the pump reservoir before I went to work and had to fil it up again when I lefr. I got hoe went out, came home and tried to move my car and it was out again. Is it just a defective rack, of is there a greater problem with the car. I can exchange it out for free because of the warranty, I just don't want to have to do it every year. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

My guess is defective rack - did you totally drain and bleed the powersteering fluid with the new rack. We replaced the rack in our stang and the directions said to replace the fluid with clean new fluid - otherwise the seals would leak over time.
