but even after the alignment was done on the car, the steering wheel is still not straight on a straight road and it is still tilted to the left more.
so my question is that if the alignment was already done to the car why is the steering wheel is still not straight? does anyone have this problem? PLEASE HELP.
*sorry if the information hard to understand and excuse my english*

Your English is fine. Just from a coastal parish, eh? Once a tire is worn out of round it may never drive true again and you might need new tires. Centering the steering wheel is done when the alignment is done. Stay away from those guys near you and take it to another dealer/city to get it done again. Drive the length of the parking lot and you will know if it close or not.
