A small power steering fluid leak can make your Dakota hard to turn. When you check your power steering fluid level, make sure your Dakota is parked on a level surface with the 3.7 liter engine turned off in order to get an accurate reading.

Adding power steering leak stopper may help stop power steering pump leaks for the short term, however, for a long term solution, you will need to replace your Dakota power steering pump.
