Car was aligned recently. The guy finished doing the alignment and as soon as i got my hands on the wheel it was "loose". Car got back on the ramp and he tightened something and the feeling was normal again. The steering wheel feels loose again and to top it of it sounds like something is loose near the Left Side Wheel(Where he messed with the tightening). Will do some searching in the morning for a diagram of what could be loose down there. In the meantime, anybody got suggestions.

My guess would be the steering rack support is a little loose. It doesn't take much loosening of this to make the steering feel very loose.


Check the parts numbered 12-15 on this diagram. Torque specs are included.

Your tie rods could be loose and not tightened properly, check them out.

Then dont post nonsense. Im expecting a serious answer because it can be a while to get this sorted out and i really want to know if what could happen.

it's not nonsense. I really dont know.

depends what it is. If your tie rods are loose, they will break and you will have an accident as your wheel will just fold on itself and rip everything apart. If it's not your tie rods, then I wouldn't worry but still fix it eventually.
