Since you picked the car up used, it can't hurt to do some preventative maintenance over the next few months and change out all of the important fluids (oil, trans fluid, brake fluid, power steering fluid, differential fluid) just to be sure you've got fresh fluids in there. Who knows the last time they may have been changed (if at all) before you bought it. In the long run it's cheap insurance against any potential problems and you can confidently throw the car around on some back roads.
Yep, the power steering fluid is known to go bad easily in this car
