Power steering sounds like the problem, di you do any donoughts with the car, I remember reading that after a few of these donoughts that the power steering pump may break.

I would say I am with Nick as well, however a few other issues could have resulted in this problem.
Were you pushing your car a lot? Perhaps were you moving the steering wheel very hard while the car was under pressure?
I am only asking because a friend of mine only recently had this same issue, and at the dealership they took his entire engine out of its place, brought it outside of the vehicle only to find no fault with the steering column or the engine, and after further inspection, they concluded that it was a loose valve pipe that had come out of its place due to high pressure and heat.
Same issue happened to my own car during the first crazy winter storm that we had in Toronto and I had to push the car to get through the city so the car over heated and gave me the error saying that ETC, EBD and a bunch of other stuff are all turned off and at which time the steering wheel became very heavy. It felt as though the car was in Dyno mode. Of course the fix was to leave the car to cool down, and restart.
