IN THE MORNINGS WHEN MY DAUGHTERS WARMS HER CAR UP AND HEADS FOR HER DESTINATION, SHE STATES THAT SHE HEARS A ROAR NOISE WHEN SHE TURNS HER STEERING WHEEL WHILE TURNING. I TEST DROVE THE CAR AND HEARD THE NOISE ALSO. I BELIEVES IT ONLY DOES IT WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN SITTING FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME OR IT IS COLD AND NEEDS TO BE WARMED UP. PLEASE ADVISE.

Check power steering fluid level. If it is low add some to the proper level and make sure there is no leak.
