First thing to assess is the Power Steering fluid. More than likely you are low or empty and thus, the ability to be agile with the wheels has become difficult. secondly, if the first is not the problem, then i would assess the power steering pump. These do go out at about 45-60K miles on most American made cars. So, this could be the second thing to rule out. third is the rack and pinion, the steering column down to the axle and then out to the tires should be assessed for leaks, no compression, etc. Hopefully this helps you out.
