Thanks I am not very knowledgeable when it comes to cars. Could you tell me where to look? And also I noticed that if I turn to far one way my car keeps pulling that way instead of straightening itself out if that helps any

That problem sounds related to the rack and pinion (not returning to center). As far as the other, you need to safely lift the front of the vehicle and inspect ball joints, tie rods. There is also a sway bar on the front. Make sure it is attached, tight and not broken.
