New 1LE steering wheel off center
Just picked up a 2021 1LE and much to my frustration the steering wheel is off center to the right. I didn’t test drive the car before I drove it off the lot, it only had 4 miles on it from the PDI so I assumed all would be in order like has been the case with previous cars I have purchased. I called the dealer back and the service tech told me this was completely normal and I had to wait for the suspension to settle. He said that Chevrolet will not allow them to do an alignment or any adjustments until 500 miles and he told me that 9 times out of 10 the problem would go away. This doesn’t sound right to me. I wouldn’t imagine that an unsettled suspension would cause this issue, and besides does a magnetic suspension need to settle in the same way as a traditional setup? I would think that the only way it could go away on its own is if the problem were tire related and wearing them in might correct the issue. Anyone else have a problem like this when the car was new, and is there any validity to the tech’s claim that this problem will sort itself out with miles on the car? I’m very sensitive to an off center wheel and this is completely spoiling the car for me.
