Is it making any noises? I remember I had a air bubble in my power steering line and it would make a noise it make steering hard. Check your power steerin fluid for a start

Top off your fluid and turn the steering left and right a few times lock to lock.

raise the front wheels start the car and turn it slowly lock to lock with out going all the way to make the annoying noise, and it will help to keep the cap open while doing this, it is very important to do it slowly and have the front wheels off the ground

I had something like that happen in my car. The bolt on the steering rack knuckle was hitting my long tubes. I just ground it down a little and it was fine.
