Description of the problem	I was driving to work and i felt the steering wheel was having weird problem when i was trying to turn, after i turned the steering wheel while i was driving and it didn't turn back to its own position, so i had to turn it by myself. At first, i thought it was the power steering pump or the rack had problem, but then i bought to the shop and the mechanic told me the pump and the rack worked fine and they did run computerize on my car and couldn't see any problem, but when he drove he did felt something is weir from the steering wheel stiffness and still now we all don't know what the problem.
