This normally would be pretty minor -- I've dealt with no power steering on my old car.
Occasionally, power steering will drop out. From what I've read online, this is a common problem. Normally pretty excusable, but I've also read that the steering column was not built to withstand the stress of steering w/o power steering, so that this problem will eventually break the steering column. This has not yet happened to me, but from what I've read, it will be preceded by weird popping noises from the steering column.
