03 Jaguar S-Type: have a rubbing sound when turning the steering wheel. It is NOT the power steering pump; the noise comes from the steering column in the cockpit. If I don't fix this problem is there a safety hazard associated with it? If it's an air bag problem, what can be done and what is the effort/cost involved?

Hi, When a grinding noise is detected first locate the area of the car it is being generated from. Most grinding noises will be being generated while driving, if you are having a hard time detecting the location of the grinding sound, have a helper ride along in the rear seat to give a new perspective on the origin of the grinding noise. A grinding noise can be generated by many things from worn out brake pads to axle bearing failure. Once a grinding sound has been detected action must be prompt. Grinding in most cases is telling you something has failed or is failing.
It can be as a result of worn out brake pads or shoes, check your engine and transmission mount, check for axle bearing failure, check your power steering system for leak...
Take care

Had service done yesterday that included topping off all fluids. Mech/tech confirmed that rubbing noise is coming from the steering wheel and suggested pulling it (for $200) then checking to see what was rubbing. I'm thinking about doing that but am not that enthused. Any other suggetions from you experts?
