OT: 2k jetta auto ps questions

Now we know why her tires were wearing so badly. The tire shop thought it is the power steering rod but said to get it to a shop to find out if that's it. The car has a little over 50k miles on it. Does anyone know if this is a problem area? Are there other things that may more likely be the culprit? Seems that things like this should not be wearing out already. Her front shocks, which feel fine while in the car, make a squeaky/groaning sound over some bumps and when you push down on the bumper with a bit of force. Shocks gone? Or somehow related to the wheel movement? The car doesn't seem to drive strangely, it just feels like it could use an alignment, but apparently the movement is very noticable as you can actually take the wheel when it's on a
 lift and move it back and forth.
 
TIA,
Dan
