    Power steering system. Check fluid level. Check pump. Could be slipping
    belt, also.

    Assuming all the normal things check & pass then…..
    Variable rate power steering in this car?
    If so then it’s the VSS going. Steering would do that in my ’94 bull as it
    had variable rate steering.
