Clicking and slipping steering wheel / 9-3 Aero

Hi all. I've been having problem with my 2005 9-3 Aero's steering. It starting off as an annoying "clicking" sound when the wheel was turned 1/4 of the way to the left and right. I brought it in to my local Saab dealership and they replace the shaft under the extended warranty. That solved the problem for one day, but now the problem has progressed beyond the clicking--it feels like the wheel actually slips after it makes an even louder click sound. When I turn the same 1/4 of the way to either side, it feels like the wheel has a slight resistance and catches on something. Once it gets past that point it suddenly continues turning, making the car jerk slightly to the left or right when it's moving. Kind of scary and probably dangerous too. It's at the dealership now being diagnosed again, but the shop is having a hard time identifying the problem.
Has anybody encountered this before? I'd sure appreciate any advice that you could provide. Thank you!
