Angry 2022 ZL1 1LE power steering reservoir

Where is the PS reservoir located? In addition to my two other unresolved problems, the PS intermittently dies on a cold startup. There is no steering!!! Have you tried steering 305 front tires with no power? There is steering after a few moments, then all is well. There are no DTC codes. Dealer labor rates are $325. Thanks for any advice.

No reservoir. It's electric.

Yep, this. Never have to worry about fluid, lines, overfilling/underfilling, etc

Probably a fuse. Jumping it off will cause that sometimes.
Or if a new battery was installed the bolt for the power steering wire could have been left off or loose.
Open the hood and look down. Just under the belt is a cylinder looking thing. That's your power steering motor. Make sure its plugged in and no wires are chewed up.
