91 245 Steering Not Self Centering

Art

I guess I am not explaining my self correctly

Not automatically return to center, but I don't expect it to continue a turn and I have to correct in the opposite direction to keep it on the road. Normally when you let go of the wheel the car has a tendency to stop turning and at least go straight not continue the turn.

It gets "stuck" in a turn until I manually correct it by turning the wheel in the opposite direction.

I found this that seems to explain what I am experiencing.

Poor returnability and sticky steering is used to describe the poor return of the steering wheel to center after a turn or steering correction is completed.
