Hi.....
Insist to drive car from cold and check there are no whining noises when you pulll away in 1st gear. If you can hear the power stearing noise over 40mph then have that checked as it could be the pump.

To be honest i would be surprised if you found major probs with a 2007! but you can never be too careful.

P.S... I SUGGEST YOU CHECK FLUID LEVELS AS WELL....TELLS YOU HOW WELL MAINTAINED.
