Power Steering

Do 07 ss/sc come with power steering or not?
Cause i bought mine and it had no power steering i was wondering if it comes like that stock or if the previous owner took it out?
thx in advance

^^ ya
look under the panel under your steering wheel. The electric motor that does the "power assist" is a black canister looking thing. No fluid.

i have a strong feeling your power steering is working fine. Can you tuen the wheel at a dead stop when the engine is on?

and torque steer is just a FWD thing, not a power steering thing

You have a 07 so it still has the 5yr/100,000 mile warranty still. Take it to a dealer.

since your under warranty have the dealership do it.

out if warranty FK i mean FK the dealer. You should be getting a code have someone scan it and see what it says. It is possible its not your column, chances are it is though. (I think everyone has replaced one by 60,000 miles) including myself.
