Steering wheel problem - I hope you guys can help me out

I searched around but I cant find any solutions to my problems, I hope you guys can help me out...I have been living with this problem for a year and its getting annoying...to the problem

I had suspension damage a year ago. (driver front side if it helps) I had it inspected, replaced the damaged parts, inspected, aligned and now inspected again. These were done at different dealers and shops so I dont get any bias or whatever.
Anyways, The steering wheel is crooked a little bit to the left (when its going straight), but the car does not pull. It's kinda getting annoying on a daily basis. I was wondering if anyone know how to adjust the wheel (just the steering wheel itself) with a helms manual or something. Just to loosen it, adjust it and tighten it.
Steering and Handling is a major pro for this car, its kinda sad for it to be not perfect.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

I'm not sure how you would fix this yourself but why not stop by the dealer and explain the problem - they may give you an idea what is involved in correcting it. I'm assuming you are concerned about the possible cost involved hence your question about doing it yourself. Might be a quick fix at the dealer that wouldn't cost a lot. If its bugging you that much - the cost may be worth it.

very common problem. they can fix it, but it will probably be a little crooked or pull to the left forever.......and ever

you can go to autozone or a car shop and rent the tools for like $20 and do it there in the parking lot also.
