If it has power steering better be looking at replacing the power steering pump. It takes more power to turn the wheels at a stop then when moving I have had that problem and it was the pump. Good luck O by the way it is not hard to replace the pump you can do it in about an hour all you need is a power steering pump pulley puller. You can rent one at any auto zone store.

2010 Ford F-150. why does our truck start to run rough when turning a slow hard left from a stop?

Check the power steering fluid. If it is low or dirty, fix that first. Check for leaks, especially on the actuator cylinder seal(s).

If the fluid is good, you'll have to find out what else is causing the power steering system to drag on the engine. This could be a problem with the suspension that makes left turns hard (worst case is a part that goes out of alignment due to a rusted-out attachment point).

Abs light comes when I accelarate to make a right or left turn from a side street or if I accelerate hard from a dead stop

First get the code that set the MIL Lamp. Will most likely, point to ABS Wheel Speed Sensor or System.
Then have the system diagnosed and repaired

1996 camry le 6 cylinder. cannot get ignition key to turn to start car. gear is in park and have tried adjusting steering wheel

Hi the steering lock could be causing you the problem try turning the steering wheel hard left whilst turning the key and do the same hard right.

it may be hard to turn but you should find once you have moved it slightly it will unlock allowing you to turn the key so dont adjust the steering wheel turn it to the right as if your trying to turn to the right and if this dont let the key turn turn the wheel to the left it only needs to move slightly to allow the steering lock to free the key,

doing the above should solve you problem

give me a shout back if you have any further problems ok

I have a 1997 oldsmobile aurora and the problem is when im going slow or at a complete stop the wheel is very hard to turn to the right but it has no problem whennim driving and never gives me a hard time...

The rack and pinion needs to be replaced to rectify the one side turning easily and the other side not turning so easily. It's like a flapper in the rack and pinion, I think.

There must be enough pressure built up by the power steering pump if it goes easily at a stop when one turns left.

When moving forward from a dead stop and turning left or right, there is a jerking in the front end but once you straighten out it goes away.this blazer is a 4 x 4. It has 124000 miles on it and this...

sounds to me like front half-shafts outer c/v are frozen OR the c/v boots are split and the lube is gone.
a visual on the boots, if you see grease all spread around there, then the joints are worn.........buy new half-shafts.
also, possible worn ball joints causing the steering knuckles to bind on a hard turn...

Pull to the left, Brakes

Sounds like it was pulling before the brake job...if so the only thing you didn't replace was the rotors, I assume you turned them? and did you see hard spots on the rotor? discolored area that didn't cut the same......switch the rotors left to right and see if the problem moves or just replace them if they've been cut twice.
