QUESTION: I have a 96 ford mutang gt with 49kI took it in to the shop and they told me my power steering was low and dirty and needed to be flushed, needs tire alignment and both rear shocks are out what will occur if I didn't get all this fixed right away? How long can I wait?thank you

Answer
as far as the steering being flushed, it wont hurt. definatley extemd the life of your p.s. system but for the most part, if you check it and keep it full- you should be o.k. the shocks and alignment concern. if your having a less than comfortable ride- a new set of shocks and alignment would be helpfull
