Default weird allignment incident

okay a couple of weeks back i was driving home...about a hour away....everything was going smoth until i started to notice my steering wheel turing a little bit as if the allignment was off...i didn't think nothing of it but then it got so bad i thought my tires had blown....i had to use two hands just to steer it straight....pulled over to take a look and all the tires were perfect, poped the hood to see if anything is funky with my axles and nothing....here's the twist, i got back in and continue driving home and it was like the incident never happened!? steering was smoth, no wheel turning, nothing!! i cant think of any possible reason why that happen...oh when i got home i check the axle and there was a lil leak by the hub, could that possibly have caused it?

Put the car up on jackstands and remove the wheels, and check over everything, especially the tie-rod ends and their balljoints where they connect to the hub. Check all the other balljoints, etc.

Happens to me every couple of days though everything looks fine on my car. I've heard that integras love to get jerked around by grooves in the road...
