Check your front tracking,too much toe in can make the steering very lively!
Other than that,as per previous post.

I have the same thing on mine, ive done a total of around 800 miles in my car this week and had a few scarey moments along the way but apart from that all good.

Think i mite try get the tracking looked at if that would make a difference.
