Hello, I have a ford focus 2005, i have recently bought the car and i had wheel alignment done as the steering wheel wasn't straight and they advised that the tracking was quite far out, can't remember if they said + or - but it was 11 out. anyway it wasn't aligned with steering wheel straight again, so i took it to another branch 3 weeks later and they said it was + 11 out, why would this be, could there be an underlying issue? they did mention that the bolts they usually need to get off with a spanner, could be taken off by hand, could this have been the problem?

SOURCE: steering wheel alignment

nothing they did should have affected this. look on your tires and see if you see any rub marks might have scrubbed the lift when pulling into the shop and knocked out of alignment.

make sure the wheels are straight take off the steering wheel and put it back on straight then report the mechanic to the motor traders association how a mechanic returns your car like that i dont know glenn.........

i had the same problem in a 2001 avalon. i had the brakes machined and the problem was solved.
