I wouldn't chance it. Not all PS fluid is compatible with each other. Pep Boys stocks GM power steering fluid.

You'd probably be ok with almost anything.
But why take the chance?
If you use something that causes damage, you'll be looking at hundreds of dollars and a lot of frustration to get it fixed.

BTW, if you need to top off more than a couple of spoonfulls about once every 20k miles, something is probably leaking and that will need to be fixed at some point.
