I have a Q about power steering fluid?? Please help
I went down to the dealership and asked them to give me a quart of power steering fluid and the guy tried to sell me a NAPA Premium ATF (automatic transmission fluid) for it. I really dont think thats the right stuff he gave but I could be wrong?? Is this correct or what other power steering brand can I use?

ATF is what it takes, makes it cheap and easy.

If your cap says ATF, then it is right... Use any with Dextron III (what the dealer told me)
