Have you had any shop look at it? Is it under warranty still? Have you done anything with the suspension at all or recently?

you turn the steering wheel until it stops and you're feeling vibration? That's because you're over extending the pump at the steering stops (inside the steering rack housing). Keep that up, holding the steering at the stops, and you'll ruin the rack and power steering pump. :no:
If you're having steering issues, and you have an 05 tC, then there is a TSB for updating the rack and power steering pump assembly. They came out with a better part. That could be the cause of your vibration sounds.
