Quickie Non-Volvo (Sorry!) Question--Power steering 200

Hello, everyone. Just a quick question here-- My sister has the Buick Regal. Her power steering was making sounds, so I checked the level of fluid, and found it to be very low. She was in a rush, so she went to a local gas station, and asked a kid to put in fluid. He just dumped the entire bottle in, and did not check the level. The steering is working well, but our question is: are there any major negative consequences if the reservoir is over-filled? Can she get by a while, or is it urgent to bring back down to proper level? (I know we gotta find the leak, and if it is a big leak, then this is all moot).......TIA!

P.S. Don't worry! My own Volvo GT is fast generating Volvo-related power steering Q's.....I will post them "in turn"!
