Steering

As of a few days ago, when going around a corner the steering wheel seems to shift over quite a bit with out changing the steering input and then will stay there for awhile before going back. Usually when going straight the wheel is perfectly lined up with the column the way it's supposed to be. Then after a few corners the wheel will have to be slightly to the left to be going straight. None the less the car doesn't pull any direction and the allignment is still seemingly perfect. Is this a tierod situation or is it possible that the rack is shifting due to bad bushings or is loose? Any advice helps. nolvrpleasethankyou

Sounds like you need to replace your rack-n-pinion bushings.
