Absolutely not! My Alero's steering is as smooth as silk...if that makes sense? lol. Its much more smooth than most cars I have driven with power steering. Did you check the power steering fluid? You might also have air in the lines..happened to me once while i was constantly turning too quickly and very hard. Does it make a whining noise when you turn the steering wheel? If the power steering pump is whining then it might need to be changed. Check the fluid first. What I did when I had the same problem was I took my car to an empty parking lot and just turned it left and right excessively and it fixed the problem.
