Steering wheel tilt

I have had a Acura RSX, Honda Accord and now the RDX and one thing I have noticed with the steering wheel is that when driving straight, there is a ever so slight tilt to the right. it's very minor but something I can tell..The car does not shake or anything like that..

This was like that with my RSX and Accord also..so just wondering if this is normal.

thanks

I have noticed exactly the same thing and was waiting to get it more pronounced before going to the dealer. We have 1 year alignment warranty. I have to constantly fight the steering to keep it straight. Majority of the times on bad roads, it will slowly start drifting right. I have read in the past that this is by design so you don't hit the on coming traffic.
I guess this is what many people have been complaining of poor steering response in the RDX. You get a feeling like it needs a good alignment and things need to be tightened a bit. Mine is FWD

Could just be the crown of the road too, no?

Mine does it too. I suspect they overcompensate for the crown on the road. The dealer says they can't do a warranty claim as I didn't report it within the first 30 days of ownership.
I'll take care of it on my own eventually.
