A while ago, the left tie rod on my '99 Escort SE snapped when it hit a bad pothole. Since then, the steering wheel has been off about 8-10 degrees right. It doesn't seem to be a major issue, but it is quite annoying. any ideas? someone told me that the mechanics were lazy and failed to properly align everything.

could have a bent control arm, or could just be a bad alignment.

I suspected as much.
