2010 Acura TL Steering
Everytime i turn left or right my steering wheel doesn't go back to the center and i have to do it my self. Can somebody tell me what's the problem with that.

Maybe alignment is needed this is just my guess. Someone will chime to tell you exactly what the problem is. Has the car been in any accidents esp. front end. When was the last time the car received an alignment?

^^^You got that right thoiboi, I mean did you curb check anything before this took play or did you run over something? But from what OP is describing it's most likely your having issues that's called poor steering returnability. It could be caused by many factors such as steering gear that is too tight or improperly adjusted. Sticking or binding components, such as a king pin, ball joint, bell crank or even the steering column can prevent the steering wheel from returning to center after a turn. Alignment can also be a factor; improper caster, improper toe-in, can be contributing factors. The list goes on, but more than likely these are the common ones, but best suggestion is to take it to a trust worthy suspension/ alignment shop.

Now we're talking..... There's obviously something up on the left side. Did you do an alignment? Sounds like VSA sensor may be damaged as well.
