        It's probably just the system being stiff from the extreme cold. The fluid probably gets thicker too. However, in my last car (87 Cavalier), there was a problem where turning left (i think it was) had no power steering until it warmed up. It was referred to as morning sickness. The dealer had to replace seals in the rack or something like that. But mine did it regardless of outside temp.
