the squirt gun does not work, is there any troubleshooting for this issue?

I have bought 5 of these so far for my grandson .. the squirt gun has always worked except when I tried to use a console (part with the handlebar and switches) from one of the older larger boats on one of the new smaller ones that don't have the separate seat cushion. It would either go backward and the squirter would work or go forward with no powered squirt gun ... but we have modified all of these to run on 12 volt power wheel batteries instead of the 8 D cells. The biggest issue we have had is trying to reuse them the next season, for 2 Winters now, the motor/gear mechanism locked up (we live in Illinois with very seasonal pool use) - which is why I have to buy new ones every year .. at least they are only $25 at Costco now, or $35 for the older style at Aldi's.

can i buy just the steering part?

Wrong person to ask. Contact the vendor who was selling the product... sorry!

i am looking to buy one is it worth it for how much it is.

Absolutely not worth buying. We had two of them and after one use it water gun would not shut off unless we took the batteries out! I returned the one I bought. When I called the company they wouldn't give me the time of day. Only because of Amazon did I get the money back for the one I returned(The other one someone else bought).
