Default wheal alighment or is it just tire presure ?

my new XLE 2007 with less than 700 miles on it turns slighlty to the right, and the steerring wheal is twisted to the right - a little- i wasnt sure about this i though its just me but now iam quite sure the steering wheal is not strait, is it still covered by the warranty ? i didnt call my dealer yet, i think tomorow i will call him. what do u think guys ??

It is reasonable to assume that a brand new car should have a steering wheel that is centered. I'd present it that way to the dealer. Rather than argue whether it needs to be aligned, make the point that the wheel isn't centered.

allignment. if pressures were off by that much, the pressure light would have turned on.

make sure this is happening on all roads - some roads are slanted to one side and cause this effect.

You only have 700miles on it, i would definately take the car into the dealer and have them take a look at it since your car still is under warranty.
