Means your steering wheel pump might be going bad. But first check your steering wheel fluid you could be very low.

If the steering wheel is loose while driving the steering rack may be going bad. A bad steering rack leads to a lot of play on the actual wheel.

Steering wheel noises can be caused by low power steering fluid. A loose or worn belt or suspension problems can also cause a steering wheel to make noises when turned.

try and put your key and shack the steering wheel
