When I turn my steering wheel to the right it has a big kink in it and throws my car off and when I turn it to the left it is fine . I do not know what is wrong with my steering wheel. this just started about four days ago. I checked my power steering fluid and it does not need any fluid. However, the power steering fluid was bubbling when I checked it.

if it is doing that then have a mechanic check it as soon as you can. it kind of sounds like the rack and pinion is going out on it which is what the steering column connects to make the car turn.
