Default power steering...

Okay here is the deal...

I recently got in an accident where I ran over a 4x6 board that was inbeded into a ladys garden and now...when i make a left turn and im coming out of the turn the car still wants to stay right instead of coming out of the turn like a normal setting (btw the car pulls to the right as well) will an alignment correct this problem or is it more serious?

Thanks a lot for your time

sounds like your toe is off

when your steering wheel is centered, are your wheels straight?

Have it put on the alignment machine and go from there. Any alignment shop will have to do a thorough suspension/steering inspection before performing an alignment, so they would be able to tell you if there is an obvious problem
