Lee, your car - if it has actually got power steering (some don't) will probably have electric 'Dual assist' power steering. try disconnecting the battery for more than 30 minutes and reconnecting it again. this resets the electric power steering. Before you disconnect the battery make sure you have the code for the radio so that you can re-enter the code when the battery is reconnected up.

depending on age of car if it is heavy it probably be wrong tyre pressures
