Called the dealership to confirm my appointment for tomorrow but they said they do not have access to someone from Chevrolet on the weekends to talk about the possibility of having to adjust the tie rod ends. Was told they have not heard of having to do that . Not sure what to make of that but have an appointment next Thursday so they can look at the car. Since this is the dealership I purchased the car from I want to have them try to resolve the problem. If they can't I will then go to another dealership to see what they say.

Going to the tire shop tomorrow to rotate tires as snaphappy suggested to see if that fixes the issue and if it does then no need to go to dealership.

Obzen: Yes when I get going straight and let go of the wheel there is a slight drift to the right due to the crown of the road and if I hold the steering wheel center off to the left I go.

While this is not a huge issue it's more the point of buying a new car and having something that annoys you.

Will post back after having tires rotated tomorrow if that indeed resolves the issue.

Thanks for the replies and advice.

It may not be a HUGE issue but its a valid issue. I would do the same thing. It's all just in the alignment, its an easy fix for a competent shop. The steering wheel needs to be center. It's not a 20 year old truck with worn out parts.

Check tire pressure too . . . but most likely the alignment is off.
