Maybe you need a stroger servo.

Debunking old stereotypes
Is there something binding it?
Does it steer if you move it by hand?
What servo?
Do you have your servo centered with your trim, before you put the servo horn on?
You need to half split your problem and find out if it is your servo, something binding or you linkage to the servo.
1. Remove the linkage to the servo and move the wheels right and left, everything should be smooth as silk.
2. Move your servo (with your RX) full right and full left, again, everything should be smooth and it should have the same amount to throw in each direction.
3. If both of those are fine, check your linkage connecting your servo to your wheels. Remove the servo horn from the servo, turn everything on and center your servo, slide the horn on (with everything still on) so the the horn is vertical, get the screw started then shut everything down and tighten the servi horn screw. Connect the linkage, turn everything back on and verify that your wheels are straight when the TX is not being moved.
