Default Steering feels loose?

For some odd reason and out of no where, my steering feels loose. By that I mean when I change lanes or driving down a straight road with small turns in them, it feels like there is too much play in the steering. Any ideas?

Low tire pressure or steering ball joints would be my guess. I know my ball joints are lose causing mine to have some wander/play.

Track bar bushings?

is there play in the wheel and not the suspension? i replaced my trackbar at 21,600 km's and the wheel had a definate gap from loose bushings, i've put 10,000 km's on in the last six weeks and it has been fine.
