While driving approx 20 mph out of a parking lot onto the main road and turning left, I heard a loud whining sound and felt a "thump" with some vibration in the steering column. The car continues to make the same sound when making sharper turns, like going into a parking space. I was told by the dealership that I have a power steering leak and need a new steering rack to the tune of $1300-1600 repair! this car only has 33,146 miles.
