Suppose you're driving in a straight line on the highway and you glance down at the steering wheel. Would you expect the steering wheel to be straight, or turned slightly to the left (around 5 degrees)?
I had the impression that my steering wheel was slightly off center (ie. tilted slightly to the left when driving straight), so I asked the dealer to check it out when I went for an oil change. They said the steering wheel was correctly centered and that I was just compensating for the crown in the road.
At first I thought they were full of shhh but now I'm not so sure. I found a reasonably flat parking lot and at slow speeds the wheel was indeed straight. But when I'm on the road, it is tilted to the left.
Yes, I'm nitpicking.
Anyone have any thoughts?
