Hi,

The problem could be your power steering assist motor worn out or faulty fuse or relay, Check the fuses and relays and and check the circuit for the power assist motor. I'm attaching schematics, wiring diagrams and fuse block location.Please let us know if this is help and what fixed problem. If you more help let us know and we will get you more information.
