You may want to check this with your dealer, but not too recently the cav and sunfire had a recall on the Power Steering. Something about a bad gear and power failure when making left hand turns. They would either replace the faulty gear or the whole rack and pinion assembly. Either way have it checked out. A steering problem is not a nice problem. It may cause accidents or death.

What is the purpose of the steering damper?

It's primary purpose is to control excessive feedback into the steering wheel. For example, when you hit a large pothole, some vehicles would feed back that energy into the steering shaft causing the steering wheel to jump left or right suddenly which could cause the driver to loose control of the vehicle. Not all vehicles need one of these.
