Default Power Steering

Yesterday I went out for a little wheeling and ended up getting stuck in a mud pit. While I was trying to get out I was turning the wheel left and right trying to get out. After doing this for a bit my steering began to make a whinning noise. Now while driving on the road at speeds below 3mph the power steering does not work and it makes that same whinning noise. The power steering works otherwise and no noises once I get around 5 mph.

If your running big tires you could have worn it out easily
