My car had a minor collision and was repaired, but the alignment wasn't done. The steering wheel is off-center. After driving for a while, an error code appeared, indicating that the stability control system needs repair. A diagnostic showed that the steering wheel position is incorrect. After clearing the error code, it came back after driving for a while. Can any experts advise on what the issue might be?

8It sounds like you are experiencing a vibration issue with your vehicle, especially noticeable at certain speeds. After performing wheel balancing, the shaking became more pronounced between 100 to 110 km/h, even reaching the seats, but it disappears at 120 km/h. You also mentioned that at low speeds on uneven cement roads, there is a resonance from the engine compartment to the steering wheel. These symptoms might indicate an issue with the wheel alignment, tire condition, or suspension components. It would be advisable to have a professional mechanic inspect the vehicle to diagnose and resolve the problem accurately.
9Has anyone done a wheel alignment? My City has uneven wear on the left rear tire and slightly pulls to one side. I've heard that the City’s rear wheels are non-adjustable and you can only add shims during alignment. Is this safe? Also, is it necessary to do a wheel alignment since the tires are quite cheap? 🤦♂️
