Steering wheel off-center

[HarmCityHammer]

Good morning everyone, anyone else’s steering wheel off-center? Meaning, if you’re holding it completely “level” but the vehicle tracks slightly to the left?
450 miles on the Bronco, no off roading yet to speak of. Probably just take it in to the dealer to have it aligned, just curious if anyone else had a similar deal?

Hi there, I'd be happy to look into your Bronco concerns on my end. Will you send us a message with your VIN and dealership info? I can look into things on my end.

Often they aren't perfect, but should be very close. I would be tempted to check the steering tie-rods to see if one got bent. That would throw it off.

There was that one that supposedly broke in their driveway with minimal stress.

I have 5700 miles on mine and just had the tires rotated at the dealership and now my steering wheel is off center. It tracks perfectly straight if I'm not holding the steering wheel but it looks to be turned to the left slightly. When I put the steering wheel straight the Bronco heads to the right.
Guess I'll be taking it back to have it checked. I hope yours gets resolved quickly.

You're not alone!
I have the same issue (steering wheel looks to be so slightly to the right )
Annoying, but it does track straight enough.

Mine was off from the factory, it tracked straight but wheel was not centered.

Taken care of under warranty.

Mine was off center from the factory also. Dealer took care of it for me.

I just did a 5 tire rotation on mine and having the same issue. Steering wheel is slightly off center leaning to the right.

Did you resolve this?

I forgot about it until I drove a long highway drive a few days ago and then noticed it again.

It's very minor. I kept telling myself that, but it's noticeable vs how it was before.

Did you put the spare on the left or right? Mine is a little left from center driving straight so I’m hoping rotating will get me straight again lol

Right. It drives straight. I get the warning to keep my hands on the wheel every drive. It gets annoying.

Sounds like an alignment is fix, easy stuff. Hopefully mine goes from slightly left to center doing mine in a few weeks lol. If it was left then I’d say it’s probabaly something to do with a little road crown?
