OK, for you armchair diagnosticians, please take your best guess.
Turning right into a parking lot at a somewhat aggressive speed, I clipped the curb with the rear passenger-side wheel. It hit hard enough for the rear wheel to exhibit road rash on the rim but no visible bend in the rim. I felt the car move sideways when it hit but not severely so. The steering wheel before the encounter was centered when going straight down the road but now is slightly, but noticeably, off center to the left. But no road rash on the front passenger-side wheel, and the car generates no odd sensations through the old butt sensor.
So, what do you think, is a slight change in rear alignment likely to cause the steering wheel offset, or does this sound like something else? Thanks for any suggestions.
