Power Steering Pump Leak - Big Deal?

[luciddaydream]

Hi there
I took my car to a shop today to have it checked out.
They said my power steering pump has a leak.

Is this a known issue? What is usually the main issue? (ie entire thing replaced or just parts)
Is it an expensive fix?

I assume its covered under warranty.. but don't really want to take it to the dealer as they're far far away and I have a ton of mods that they probably would not love.

Thanks a ton

It’s covered under warranty and an extremely common Emira failure, it’s all over the problems / issues forum. Even the very first delivered Emira had the power steering pump fail upon factory delivery.

I would get it checked out. Many are getting their entire steering assembly replaced.
