Hello and thanks for fielding this question. My mom's Caravan was leaking coolant from the water-pump area and so I took it in to get the leak sealed and the pump replaced. I just got the vehicle back and I noticed that the power-steering is tighter and there is a groan that wasn't there before when I steer the vehicle. Its the first time I use the mechanic I went to, and I wonder the mechanic messed up one of the power steering connections and its sucking in air, but so far I haven't seen any power steering fluid on the ground. Also when I start the vehicle there is a distinct gargling/bubbling sound that seems to come from the cooling system that wasn't there before.
I don't wanna have to go and start a fuss with the mechanic shop, if there is no big deal here. What do you guys make of the power-steering issue and the bubbling/gargle sound at start and should I be rolling up my sleeves?
