What mounts the power steering pump into the power steering pump? Can that part be replaced if the mount that holds the power steering pump in place is broken? My power steering pump was replaced and the next day the serpentine belt fell off and the pump was loose, had it tighten and belt put back on soon as the car started belt came back off and pump was loose, bolts in the back has pieces of the mount in the bolts.

Hello,

It does sounds like the pump mount is broken or the mounting bolts are stripped/missing. Here is a video that shows the job being done:

Please run down this video and report back, There is also a picture of the pump attached below

Cheers, Ken
