Steering Issue

[Peter]

Right after the hit and run that occurred a week ago, the steering on my Marauder hasn't been right ever since. My steering wheel, at the 12 o'clock position used to steer straight, now I have to steer at the 3 o'clock position to go straight. What is the problem? Alignment? The Malibu that hit me, hit me on my passenger side front rim on the spoke.

Can anyone give me any ideas what is wrong?

Have it inspected and adjust the alignment.

If you're lucky it was just knocked out of alignment.... but the impact could have bent your knuckle, tie rod, tie rod adjustment sleeve, or other steering component. Take it in for an alignment and tell them your car was involved in a collision so they know they may have to look for bent parts, which may or may not be obvious during a visual inspection.

You have some bent parts causing the alignment to be off. Have it checked pronto. Safety issue and your tires will wear out.
