Default 2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser engine lit on P0551

When I was driving my cruiser, check engine light came on suddenly. Code on my odometer shows P0551, which indicates power Steering Pressure Sensor Circuit Range/Performance. I checked the power steering fluid, no clue of leaking so far.
Is it a big deal? Is it safe for driving before I bring it to the dealer? I have to drive to work everyday and don't have much free time during working days. Thanks!
