Question Lancer GTS 09 Steering Wheel Misaligned??

Hello there, I have this problem with my 2 month old Lancer GTS. So at first when I noticed that when going straight , the steering wheel was a little left, But I didn't cared. But now just look at the picture, I need to have the steering wheel that way when going straight, even in normal driving, and I don't think the problems are the wheels, but the steering. I have heard that there are some issued that the car turns left, but my car is going perfectly straight, but the steering is misaligned. I So, Is this under warranty?? Does anyone is experiencing this issue?? Thanks

I'm pretty sure that can be fixed with an alignment

you should def bring that back to the dealer. it needs to have the steering rack centered to get the wheel straightened out.

Too bad its not like older cars where all you had to do was remove the nut holding the steering wheel to the column, pull the wheel off and place it back on straight. Sadly that is no longer the case and we have to pay to have our steering wheel straight.

So I got it fixed, they made it really quick and without charging me. I didn't know what they did, but now it's perfect! Thanks for the advice

it may have been a toe adjustment. not sure it could make it that far off, but as long as the fixed it thats great.
