Steering and brakes went out for a moment.

[Scot]

On a long trip last week I had the power part of my steering and brakes go out at the same time. It happened twice and then everything seemed fine. Anyone know if the 2 systems are powered by the same pump? Any ideas?

The power steering pump runs both. Maybe an air bubble? Check the steering pump fluid and add more if necessary.

more likely a stuck belt tensioner.
