Default Failed power sterring pump

I've had my ford focus for nearly three years now and the other day noticed a patch of fluid on the drive. Checked all the fluid levels and noticed the power steering fluid was low so topped it up went out for a drive and came back, checked under the car and noticed the fluid leaking again.

When I took the car into the garage the mechanic that looked at it said mine was the second focus in a week he had seen with exactly the same fault.

When he looked at my car he said there was also coolant in the spark plug bays

I wouldn't mind but the car has only done 34000 miles, I can't believe it power steering pump and has failed after not that many miles.

Got a quote from the garage and he said its going to cost nearly £600 to fix everything that is wrong

Has anyone else got a focus 1.6 on 05 plate I only had the spark plugs and washer jets replaced three months ago because they were leaking into the spark plug bays
