Default Allignment always goes off uurghhhhh help

Every 2 months or so my steering wheel goes on an angle. Meaning I have to keep it steering left if I want to go straight.
I know I need alignment, but I don't want to do it every 2 months!
Why do you think it always goes off like that.

- it does this when the car is lowered AND stock ride height
- sometimes when I start moving I get a weird grinding noise, sounds like an axle or something. (passenger side)
- steering angles to the left
- maybe my tie rack or steering rod is constantly gets loosened?

Any help would be great, and no "take it to a mechanic"
Thanks.

you might try taking it to the alignment shop that did it and say hey my toe keeps messing up are you tightening my tie rod end tight when your done and have them take a good look cause thats the only reaon your steering wheel should be off is if they didn't have it locked when they did it or didn't tighten it well and if you hit alot of bumps you could be knocking it a little looser ever time until its off like it is
