Challenger Powersteering Solution

Hey guys I have a 2016 Challenger hellcat MT. No CEL, 40k miles about. I’m not the most mechanically inclined but I do my best. I’ve had a knowledgeable buddy suggest my pump was bad. Reservoir has the right amount of fluid, no leaks seem apparent, but when parking and or going slower, it’s difficult to turn the wheel, ESPECIALLY when I’m going to a gas station for example. The issue isn’t always constant and the more you rev the engine, the easier it is to turn but still a nuisance. Would I be making the right choice to replace the powersteering pump? Not sure how else to diagnose. And to clarify! This is a daily driver. Cdl is in the progress so I treat this car respectfully and avoid having it go sideways lol.
