Labor can account for a significant portion of the total cost, often between $100 to $150 per hour. It's advisable to get quotes from multiple mechanics for the best estimate.

Most cars use a pump on the engine for the power steering. The Cobalt uses an electric pump rather then the far cheaper mechanical pump. Avoid cars with the electric sterring pump, as the cost for replacement is VERY expensive and they can be a problem when the pump fails and you instantly lose steering.Answer 2The cost for replacement for a belt driven PS pump is also VERY expensive. If your power steering pump fails it is a problem no matter what kind of pump you have. A belt driven pump is more likely to fail due a damaged or broken belt, which an electric pump doesn't have.A belt driven pump also 'steals' some of the engine power to run and cuts into your gas mileage. An electric PS pump relies on the power generated by the alternator, and uses that power only when needed - that is, it uses more power when parking than at speed. Most belt driven PS pumps are at full power or boost at all times - robbing horsepower from your engine and causing your gas mileage to drop.No car instantly loses steering when the PS pump fails. You lose power to the steering, but it still works - it is much harder to steer and may feel like you have no steering, but it still works.Soon all cars will be made with electric power steering pumps. As manufacturers try to make cars more efficient they are removing horsepower robbing accessories driven by the engine. Soon even the AC compressor will be electrically powered. Many cars also have an electric vacuum pump for the power brakes as manifold vacuum is necessary to keep the engine running efficiently.
