Is there any noises to be heard, grinding or sqeeling?. I would also check the level of power steering fluid is, It seems like you could have a problem with youre rack & pinion steering assembly, Could also check to see if youre front end tie Rods & balljoints have been greased, That could also cause issues, I am pretty sure you try those trouble shoots, It will narrrow down youre problem to be fixed.

Good Luck.

Check the recall in this link, the steering one and see if it applies to yours

could also be a seal in the R/P assy. mine broke and there was a squel when you would turn one way, got air in it...

I like all the input and i will have to see if there is a recall at all but i will say there is no noise when i turn the wheel its just like there is now power steering to the the left side....
