Steering pump fluid may overflow from the reservoir due to overfilling, which can occur if too much fluid is added during maintenance. Additionally, a malfunctioning pressure relief valve or a blockage in the return line can cause excess pressure, leading to overflow. Air in the system can also create bubbles, resulting in fluid expansion and spillage. Finally, a failing steering pump or a leak in the system may contribute to fluid overflow.

What could be the cause of a 2004 Saturn Ion losing it's power steering for a brief moment and what can be done to prevent it from happening again?

Low of power steering fluid is one possible cause. I urge you to have this looked at by a professional. Loosing your power stering in a turn can cause a serious accident. Do not ignore this as it can be very dangerous. Funny cause Ion's have electric steering and have no fluid resevoir. The problem is in the motor unit, and it is not seerviveable. You will likely need an EPS motor assembly. (Electronic Power Steering)

What is the purpose and type of fluid for a 2002 VW Passat that has a reservoir with a green dipstick lid on the drivers side between the headlamps and washer fluid?

That is your power steering resevoir. You have to get that fluid from the VW Dealer only - anything else will cause significant problems with the system. If it isn't low, then you don't have anything to worry about. The cap unscrews and has a dipstick to check the fluid level. The owners manual doesn't make any mention of the resevoir. Maybe they don't wany you messing with it is why, or maybe they just spaced giving you that info.

the power steering resevoir, MAKE SURE the vehicle requires power steering fluid, some use transmission fluid instead. If your unsure take it to a lube center and ask them to do it you. In the 2004 Chevy Impala with the 3.8L engine, the power steering pump is a sealed unit. It does not require fluid to be added. Also if you have to replace it, it is not an easy job. The power steering pump is above the transmittion and behind the center of the engine.
