This will depend on what repair or adjustment got it off centre.

The steering wheel centre is set at the factory to the centre of the steering box and this can be critical to some safety related items:

  • Turning circle
  • Play in the steering going down the road, this can lead to vibrations SERVER ENOUGH TO WEAR AND DAMAGE COMPONENTS.
  • The ability of the driver to maintain his position in the lane.

So was the steering wheel off to repair the steering column and incorrectly installed? Remove and reinstall the wheel correctly

Was a piece of the steering linkage repaired or replaced: Then adjust the portion of the linkage correctly

If this has started without a previous repair find out what is unsafe and faulty in the system and repair it.
