Default Steering

Quick question. I don't have time to do a search because I'm in school. Anyways, I got towed about a week ago and now my steerings loose. Is there anyway I can fix it myself, or do I have to go to a car place.

I'll turn the wheel a lil' bit and my car won't turn as much as it usually would. it's hard to explain. my steering used to be tighter. i'll go to turn around a corner and i'll have to turn it twice as much than usual.

Thats odd and beyond my experience of issues dealt with. My only guess is alignment issue or someone messed up something in the steering column. Assuming they didnt mess with the steering column though id have to guess first with the alignment since they directly come in contact with that when towing. If youre out again, drop by some shops and ask for opinions. Mechanics can usually check it out for you outside of the shop without charge unless theyre ****** and sometimes they know right away what the issue is. Just give them the best explanation possible.

Thanx. I'll stop by either the Honda dealer or Goodyear after school. Hope it's nothing serious.
