I've gotten a control arm replaced on my Leon, and the car pulled quite badly to the right after and the steering wheel wasn't centered. The dealer told me that they had an alignment done, but they'd try again at a new place.
A few weeks have gone by and the wheel has definitely drifted away from being centered again when driving straight. I might even say it feels tighter when turning right compared to left.
Is there a reason this could happen after a control arm replacement? Too loose/tight bolts or anything like that? Just seems like something they'd catch with two alignments done. I fear my dealer would simply brush it off and tell me I'm too sensitive, but I know with certainty that the car felt better with a worn control arm, than with the new replacement. Doesn't sound right to me.
