Mine has always felt vague in the centre and the slightest camber in the road means steering isn't dead on. No mechanic has ever picked up on anything being wrong underneath. 3 years of ownership later, I’ve learn’t to live with it.
Getting the rack changed earlier this year did quite noticeably throw the alignment out. Could of chased the dealer but the tyres were never going to make it past tax return time anyway.
New tyres are on order and wheel alignment booked. If it feels any better after I’ll come back and let you know.
Camber of a road varies on just about every road you go on....So the steering isn't going to be dead on with every single road you travel on, as the camber effects whether the car goes straight, or you have to off centre the steering wheel to keep the car going straight.
Throwing the alignment out....If a complete rack is changed, an alignment must be performed, otherwise you will have tyre wear...If it was out considerably, they obviously couldn't be fagged aligning the car when the rack was changed
