I was pulling my car out of the drive way just now and the wheel jerked, along with grinding noise and was hard to turn. As I drove a little, it was very hard to turn. The power steering fluid looks fine. Doesn't look like a leak anywhere that I can think of. It was fine this morning when I drove it and has only just now acted up.
I have a hyundai elantra. I think 1999.
Anyone have any ideas what it might be. I'll try to get it to the mechanic Monday if possible, but otherwise I won't be driving it until I can get there.

Thanks, hadn't thought about that, but very well may be the power steering belt or power steering fluid pump.
When I looked under the hood ealier one belt was frayed a bit, but wasn't sure what it was to. So, could very well be the belt going on me.

the pump for the power steering is going bad.

There are so many things it could be. But since you have a mechanic the best thing to do is have the car towed to him. If you try to drive it you may cause more damage adding $$$ to the repair.
