Serpentine Belt Locks Up When Steering Turned to Lock

The serpentine belt on my daughter's 07 V6 is stopping when the steering when is turned to lock (right or left). I replaced the tensioner and the belt with no success.


It appears the power steering pump is locking up causing the belt to stop moving ... engine is running, but the belt has stopped moving.


Before I go an buy a new power steering pump, is there any other potential cause for this?


BTW, this happens with or without the AC on, and the belt only starts slipping (stops) when the steering is turned to lock right or left.:crying:
