There is no real danger unless it starts to cavitate (bubbles in the fluid) If so go buy a baby nose syringe and such it out. Don't use the syringe for anything else! Good luck

Suggested Repair
There is no real danger unless the power steering fluid starts to cavitate (bubbles). If it does, use a new baby nose syringe to suction out the excess fluid, and do not reuse that syringe for anything else.
Conversation Summary
The owner of a 1994 Dodge Caravan grossly overfilled the power steering reservoir and asked about the dangers and how to restore the proper level. The expert said there is no real danger unless the fluid cavitates and forms bubbles, in which case a baby nose syringe can be used to suck out the excess and should not be reused.
