Default Alignment issue sort of

I have a '12 crew, when im on the road (street or freeway) driving straight the steering wheel is always facing a few degrees to the right. If i let go of the steering wheel is doesn't drift to any side, so it doesn't seem to be an alignment issue. Any ideas?

You can have an alignment shop center the wheel. They will center the wheel and then adjust the toe to bring it back within spec. You may want to check with your dealer and see if they can get it under warranty.

I have had this happen twice with two of our minivans. They were both brand new. I also have this with my 2013 Durango R/T, not as bad though. Each time I took it back to the dealer and they took care of it no problem. The first time I take the R/T in I will address the issue. Don't hesitate to take it in and have the adjust it. Seems like a common problem.

Had the exact issue. Dealer moved the wheel to the left a couple of degrees, no charge. Not an alignment issue in my case. Wish he had moved it one degree instead of two but can live with it as is till next time in the dealership for maintenance.
