had this happen to me too on a volvo wagon. next time it happens stop and feel the front wheeels. if one is really hot, it's probably that caliper.
it also might be an inner cv joint.
the looseness in the rack is probably the inner tie rod ends. don't know if that's the cause tho.
other possibilities besides what has already been suggested include a bad tire (spin it with the front raised and feel the tread with your hand. shouldn't be any lumps) or a really bent wheel.
i would do the wheel temp test first.
