power steering symptoms

I know your gonna say theres alot of threads but none described how it feels. im not sure if mine is defective but when i drive it feels stiff and wont come back to neutral on its own. i have to make it got back to neutral and its annoying making me have my hands on the steering at all times or it dosent really turn back to zero.

please help i still have warrenty and all and i purchased an extended warrenty.
