A high pressure power steering hose that keeps popping off on a 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 could be caused by a few different things. Some possible causes include:
A loose or damaged hose fitting: The hose fitting may not be securely attached to the power steering pump or steering gear, causing the hose to come loose and pop off.
Worn or damaged hose: The hose itself may be worn or damaged, causing it to weaken and pop off under pressure.
Leaking power steering pump: If the power steering pump is leaking, it may not be able to maintain sufficient pressure to keep the hose securely attached.
Blockage in the power steering system: A blockage in the power steering system can cause the pressure to build up, causing the hose to pop off.
It is recommended that you have a professional mechanic inspect your power steering system to diagnose and repair the problem.
