Hit a pillar
I was backing out of a parking spot last weekend in a parking deck at a school I was visiting, in my moms 04 TL. I wasn't paying attention and I hit one of the concrete pillars luckily it only hit the tire, and there is no body damage. But now her steering wheel is off and isn't straight. This is an alignment issue right? and this could be fixed with a normal alignment? and would it only need a 2 wheel alignment?

Just hope you didn't bend a component of the suspension...
The last pre-owned car I bought from a customer the steering wheel was way off, I thought it was a bad alignment, turned out to be a bent control arm, which cost me a few hundred to fix...

my mom just got it fixed a few days ago. It was just alignment I still feel retarded though for hitting a pillar but at least I got out lucky.

I miss my 03 CL-S :(
I hit a column in an underground parking garage in my 03 CL about 6 months after getting it new, so don't feel too bad.
I wasn't even backing up, I just took a turn to tight and the column was angled towards the direction I was traveling in, so things just happened
