Does a 1989 Volvo 240DL have power steering?

I was recently given a '89 Volvo 240DL and it's hard to steer. Does it come with power steering? I do not want to bring it into a mechanic and not know. as well, the odometer doesn't seem to be working. The speedometer works, but not the odo. Is it possible to fix it without taking separately the dash, and how hard is it to fix. Thanks.

Yes, your car has power steering. Check the liquid level and the belt. If all here is OK it will take a competent mechanic to diagnose the hard steering problem. More than probably it'll be a steering rack going bad.
As for the odometer, the 240s were notorious for failing odometers. To fix them you have to take off the speedo head from the dash and have the odometer repaired professionally. be sure you get a ensure on the work because it will most likely fail again.

The Volvo 240 has a power assisted rack and pinion steering. If it's hard to steer,...the power steering belt can be broken,or more probably,.the steering rack is bad. GOOD LUCK. Rob in Pa.

yes I looked on google and it says it has power steering, but one web site says it's recognized for bad power steering. Hope that assists, also if you want just type your question into google and look at the different web sites they will tell you everything
