Owner's description

When I am driving at highway speeds in a lane on a straight path the steering wanders from center. When I attempt to correct there is resistance in the steering wheel. I have to "push through" the resistance at which point the steering obstruction suddenly clears and if I am not ready for it the sudden lightness of the steering can sometimes cause me to overcorrect. As I return to center coming from the other direction I again encounter resistance in the wheel at center. This only seems to happens when the vehicle is driven straight, in turns at surface street speeds there is no detectable resistance and the wheel turns smoothly. The effect is quite pronounced at highway speed and does occur at lower speeds on surface streets when driving straight but is much less noticeable.
