Fix it, Fix it, Fix it!
I take hard turns usually and recently my car has started STAYING in the position I'm turning. I know if I turn the other way that I'll overcorrect myself, so I don't want to do that. It happened yesterday, but I thought that was just because it was wet outside, but it did it again today. It feels like the wheel suddenly tightens up and locks. WTF?!

its the type of steering system that it is our cls. basically, its a bar with teeth that is moved left and right with a pinion gear attached to the steering shaft. so its pretty much your steering box. no more hard cornering

yeah it's a snake that ate a "ewe" (sheep).
I don't understand what you mean by "my car has started STAYING in the position I'm turning."
does this mean that you can't turn the steering wheel back to center, or does it mean your tires break loose and you "drift" the corner?

Only when your stopped. When your going, you wont have any problems turning the wheels because the car is in motion...
<~~~ Learned how to drive stick on an RX-7 with no power steering... Damnit I miss that car. I will get one.. I will I will I will.

if you're tires are losing traction when they didnt' before, then maybe they are just gettign low on tread. are you letting off of hte gas at all? that'll cause oversteer if you take the corner with high throttle, then let off mid turn.
