I bought an 05 hybrid recently but ever since buying i noticed that the steering is stiff or tends to stick in one direction....have you guys heard of this? is there a way to make the steering easier or is this the norm with this car?

for example if i were making a gradual turn the wheel would want to stay turned or if i were going down interstate it is almost a battle to change lanes.....any info would be great.

i am new to the forums so if i am asking a stupid question, forgive me

check the alignment and tire wear. also change the power steering fluid.

this may seem stupid, but i looked under the hood and did not see the power steering reservoir? i looked pretty good but as my wife says i am not the best person to be looking for something
hahaha

thanks for the help, if anyone else has any ideas please let me know

maybe it uses a different system, like electric power steering. i couldnt see a reservoir either.
