Rattling noise when turning the wheel and when hitting pot holes or bumps

What is your question?

When I sit still and turn the steering wheel all the way in both directions it makes a rattling noise on both sides and when I'm driving down the road and I hit a pot hole or a bump it makes the same rattling noise. What be the cause??

What makes this problem better or worse?

When going faster than 20 mph or when driving on the interstate

How long has your 2007 Saturn Ion had this problem?
