It does not affect the performance, but i don't know if it is something i need to address soon. I checked the powersteering fluid and it was a little low so i bought some and added a bit but it did not really help. Any ideas? Thanks

We purchased a 2001 Taurus SEL in August 2003. We had the exact same problem with our steering wheel. We took it in on a few occasions and they just said they needed to "lubricate" some part in the steering rack/column. I thought this was very strange. Several months later, our steering column/rack had to be replaced. We just traded our Taurus in today. Good luck with your car. Our Ford dealer could never give us a straight answer as to why the steering wheel had this problem.
