Sudden loss of power steering occurred when the shaft rotating the pump became loose.

Tahoe 4WD

Took vehicle in for 4-wd problem, and when vehicle was picked up it had no power steering. Dealer calims failure was due to cold weather starts. Power steering units should not fail with only 44000 miles. Could have caused serious accident if it had failed while on the road. Dealer charged $350 to repair and dismissed concern that this should not happen.
