Hi Melaniep,

Well it making a noise and hard to turn could be the Rack and Pinoin or could be the Powersteering Pump. Would need to take to a shop for diagnosis. Also have you checked the Powersteering Fluid?

Now the scrubbing and scraping does it do it all the time driving straight and/or turning. Or does it just do it when turning. Explain in more detail if you can.
