what do you say that's the power steering....
Its probably the ABS wheel speed sensors... they always go pop and impact all you have in the pictures.... if its an 2008 vehicle they are the EXACT age to die they were manufactured too. I guess PAS might be impacted as its speed dependant

Errors involving the ABS/ESP control module can also disable power steering. If you're lucky and see the more common failure, it could be a wheel speed sensor. If you have someone to ride with you, DAS or some OBD scanners can show you the wheel speed sensors as you drive. They're cheap and easy to replace.
If you 're not so lucky, a failing ABS/ESP control module can also do that. Had that happen on mine. It is neither cheap nor easy. I hope in your case it's one or more wheel speed sensors.
