Icon5 2014 Civic LX sedan has crooked steering wheel

I've been having a major problem with my car. Whenever I take it to a dealership for a wheel alignment, it comes out crooked for some reason, so if I hold the steering wheel straight, then the car will turn left. The last time it was done was the 4th time in a row that a dealer did it and it turned out crooked. At this point, I'm completely dumbfounded that they repeatedly fail to identify the problem. What the heck could this be?

There can be many causes to a crooked steering wheel. For example, has the car ever been in a front end accident, if so there are many things you need to replace even if it doesn't look damage. Another example is the steering wheel happens to be crooked, so you would have to make sure the car is straight, take apart your steering wheel and straighten it before tightening it back.

First off go to a proper alignment shop and not the stealership!

Also could be your tires have gotten worn out a certain way after it not being properly aligned...

I could go on and on at what else it could be but your best bet is bring it to an alignment shop to have them look at it.
