while it was still making sound, i checked the resevoir and there was still fuild swooshing around. but then today not to long ago i was driving then i notice the power steering was completely gone. so i popped the hood and the fluid was everywhere. yes i remember to replace the cap earlier, it was still on, but the fuild was basically puddled on the bottom of the bumper, and the side fender where it makes like a lil cliff. more of it was towards the front. didn't see any in the back.
