Where is the power steering fluid reservoir for the 1986 dodge Aries?
It is located on the passenger side of the vehicle, right behind the "air box" or "air cleaner".....it should have a red metallic looking cap on it....that states to use only "specified fluid" - interesting enough, I found this page while searching for the "specified fluid" for my 88 Dodge Aries.....many sources seem to be telling me to use Mopar ATF+4 (which has replaced ATF, ATF+2, and ATF+3....), and to NOT use anything labeled "Power Steering Fluid" on the parts store shelves......
BUT the funny thing is, my manual even says to NOT use ATF :X hahaha....I think as long as I flush all the old "whatever" fluid is in there now....out....I will be golden.....good for another 18+ years.

What would cause your 1994 Mercury Grand Marquis steering to wonder or be loose?
(Licenced Technician) -- Loose steering / wander can be caused by almost anything; bad alignment to worn steering linkage to bad balljoints to broken springs, worn steering gear, incorrect tire pressure (too high or too low), worn / mismatched tires, even wear in the steering column can cause this. In extreme cases, I have seen vehicles that would not drive properly, even with a front end that was 100% and an alignment that was all in spec. It turned out the vehicle's frame was still damaged after an accident. I would strongly recommend getting this professionally checked; a 1994 GM likely still has original (read: non-greaseable) front end joints and are likely getting play in them. .
What causes a front wheel to sound like it is rubbing?
Worn bearings, loose rotor, warped brake rotor, sticking brakes.
