I have just had control arms/ball joints replaced on the front, after the work my steering wheel is at the 7 o clock position while wheels are straight, the car tracks left also.
I went for wheel alignment, and they said it was fine, but why then is the steering wheel off and I still track left?
Any help would be appreciated.

You need to take it to someone who knows what they're doing to get the alignment checked.

Well if they thought the steering wheel being a 7 oclock was normal...

I'd have hoped the original place that replaced the steering parts would have sorted it all as part of the job !
