Default Cockeyed Steering Wheel

Noticed on my brand new C6 Coupe (2LT) the steering wheel is slightly off-center about 5 degrees to the right when driving straight and level. Tracking seems perfect with no pull to the left or right.

Just wanted some thoughts before I take it back to the dealer.

They will have to reset the toe-in with the steering wheel centered.

Yep, just have the dealer reset the wheel with proper alignment. Should be free to you.

Master Chief - search around for what dealer has the best alignment shop. All alignments are not created equal! Even look at specialty shops - alignments aren't that expensive.
