2009 Outback power steering

[Hottontot175]

Our 2009 4cyl Outback steering is weak and jerky on cold (45degree) mornings. The steering is normal after driving 2 or 3 minutes. The fluid is topped off, tires are at 35lbs, and the belt is new. I do not see leaks. There are 70K miles on the car.

Any ideas or direction for repair would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Ken

Did you inspect anything at all??? How about the power steering belt?

bmart, No idea who Hottontot 175 is. Evidently all of my post did not appear. I will contact administrator.
My tires are at 35#, belts are new and not loose, fluid is at full level and not aerated, no noticeable leaks. The steering is jerky and I hear belt squeal upon morning startup for a few minutes. Steering seems normal after driving awhile. Car has 70K miles.
