My steering wheel is turned about 30 degrees to the left to go straight.. When the wheel is straight my car goes way to the right. Where can I take my car to have it fixed/what's wrong?!

An alignment will fix this. Just make sure to relay that to the shop you take it to. I recommend Sears since they warranty their alignments. I dont know about other shops but I would definitely NOT take it to a Toyota or Lexus dealership for an alignment unless you are a "dealer maintenance only" type of person. I had mine done at Toyota and 3 weeks later it was out of alignment and they told me to muck off or pay them to redo it. Sears warranties theirs for 6 months I think and it was around the same price, $70 ish?

Nah, just take some of the air out of the left side tires. That'll cancel out the pull to the right and the car will drive straight.

might have a loose universal/swivel joint in your steering column. sam pretty much covered everything
i have a lifetime alignment thing. definitely worth it. i got it because i was chasing a front end wobble and in the end i replaced everything.

Get the alignment bro. Like I said Sears will treat you right. Tell them about the steering wheel and they'll fix it. $70 and you'll be back on the road again.
