The first step is to jack up the car and look with your eyes and hands. If you're not mechanically inclined then you need to take it to a mechanic.

You need to jack it up, grab the wheel at 9 and 3 and see if you can wiggle it. If so you have bad tie rods. Then again at 12 and 6 to check your ball joints. If it’s crooked don’t drive it anymore until you figure out whats wrong. Could break and cause you to wreck. 


no play in the rear , but i put a pole under the tire , theres alot of play in the struts , both side , nothing else loose, but would a strut make a wheel croocked?
