I agree. Sounds just like a bad SAS. Mine was the same. I replaced it. Not a fun job. No job working under the dash is fun. It's pretty straight forward. Make sure you mark the steering shaft and coupling so you clock it properly when you put the two back together or the wheel will be turned when wheels are straight. Don't ask me how I know.
