Default MY Cars Handling is Bad.... need help... Steering problem..

bodyshop dosent open till monday... and thas when i can call them up and see whats up with my steering...

ok when my car was hit... on of my front wheel was turned al the way left.. and one was pointing straight... so that should tell you that they repair'd some things on the steering section of the car...



now when ever i go over a little bump my car just like pulls it self to the right or left... and it literally pulls it self.. like sharply.. im scared that if it happen when im going really fast that it will happen and i might loose control...


and when every im going threw a curvey road... and im turning with the curve... the car pulls it self sharply towards.. the curb...

Scary isnt it...

when im goin straight.. the cars sterring wheels is tilted a little to the left... and some times tilted slights to the right... and it switches every time i go over a pothole/bump/dip.. and this is when im going straight.....

Could be the alignment... or the wheel lugs loose... i doubt it.. or something eles with the steering... mayb the ECU??? i dont know... but i do know is that when they repaird my car.. they had to replace the cars ECU...


Any help would be Greatly appriciated!

Thanks
