Right turn and straighten out and steering wheel remains in neutral position (straight forward), left turn and then straighten out and steering wheel has rotated approximately 20 degrees to the left.
Something is loose on your steering linkage or suspension have a pro look at it, use a shop with an alignment rack available.
SOURCE: Noise (vibration) when turning right
That sounds like a left front wheel bearing gone bad My friend.. turning right transfers weight to the left side and it probably has a roar similar to a turbo fan jet.. Try it and lemmie know.. thank you

have your wheel bearings checked out. sounds like a wheel bearing going bad, if you said it gets worse when turning right have your left wheel bearings checked for wear. weight transfer will put more strain on the bearings and make them louder.
SOURCE: steering wheel very hard to turn left or right
The steering gear-oil must be filled to its proper level.
Next, make sure your balljoints, tie-rod ends, rack & pinion assembly are properly lubricated.
Wheel alignment, low tire pressure must be ok.

The specs are what the manufacturer recommends for the vehicle when it leaves the factory. However that means with the original tires and condition. The caster is not adjustable on a Corolla, so if the vehicle pulls even with the tires switched, there is a possibility there is damage to the strut or steering parts. However, before changing anything, check all tire pressures and make sure the brakes are in good condition. A brake that is not releasing properly will cause a pull to that side. Individual toe is rather meaningless - the total toe is what is measured. You have no king pins on a Toyota so you will not have KPI.
Place your left hand on the top of the steering wheel and place your right hand on the key.
Wiggle the steering wheel left and right, and attempt to turn the key into a different position, such as the "Accessory" or "On" position. Continue until the key moves freely.
Turn the key back to the "Off" position, then pull key out ignition
