If anyone has a fix for this please advise.

Thanks and Happy Holidays!
I'd look in the steering linkage for a worn ball joint. When you turn the wheel, there is no load on a joint and it will just move, get a load on it and it fights the movement 'till it has to move. It snaps from one side of the play to the other.
