unfortunately there's no easy way to unhook the pump. Not like in the olden days when all it took was taking off one of the V=belts! The PS pump is driven directly off the end of one of the cams. And it's hard to just dribble some more fluid in there on account of it takes $pecial fluid, that you won't find just anywhere.
Call the dealer - you're probably still under warranty (unless there's a gazillion miles on the thing) and if it's considered a risk, they'll pay the towing.
