Default Car was towed :(

My car unfortunately was towed last night. I was so flustered trying to get it back I didn't realize until today that my alignment is off and the steering wheel is off center. I'm hoping a simple realignment will fix this and it's not something worse like a bent tie rod.

That suck man they probably through the toe-off somehow, and if they dent something then they should be fixing it. How did your car get towed anyway?

Long story lol. Basically I parked somewhere that a friend directed me to park but there was a misunderstanding. They dragged my baby by the rear wheels for 4 miles.

That sucks man I would make sure there are no problems with your car being towed for 4 miles is a little much an AWD would be worse though. They didn't put the rear wheels on dollies.
