RE: steering

just a dumb thought ,but try taking off the steering wheel when the wheels are straight and put it back on straight.

RE: steering

i seriously doubt an alignment will ever affect the steering wheel itself,but rather the actual steering of the car

Q. What are the â€œsymptomsâ€ of a car that's out of alignment?

A. Have your car checked if you notice:

Excessive or uneven tire wear.
Steering wheel pulls to the left or right.
Feeling of looseness or wandering.
Steering wheel vibration or shimmy.
Steering wheel is not centered when car is moving straight ahead
