Default Steering wheel not centered?

Hello, I have a 2005 2WD F-150 XLT. Recently purchased it, last owner stated that the fender was replaced due to an accident. The steering wheel by default is not centered it's on the left. When I drive it starts heading to the right. Any ideas what it could be? Took it to the shop and they told me the two lower ball joints were bad.

usually that has to do with your front end alignment. did you have that checked when you took it in?

+1 needs an alignment, which you will need those ball joints replaced for that as well. The shop i take mine to always asks me if my steering wheel is centered before they start.
