Had LCA's replaced but problem resulted . . .
Under a Ford TSB 12-8-24 I had the LCA's replaced on my 2013 Mustang Premium, and when it was put back together the steering wheel was off-center and the dealership is baffled. Said they've done many before with no problem.
Any experience with this out there?
I should mention that everything is fine as far as alignment.

Your car is not in alignment. I had the same issue with the steering wheel being off center. It constantly pointed to 1 o'clock while driving straight.
If the dealer is baffled then I would seriously question the dealers ability to work my car.
Take it to something like Kaufman tire and they can resolve it for you. At least, they did for me.
Found this in another post...
"I noticed you have rear lower control arms. This may cause a thrust angle in your rear axle which will allow the car to drive straight, but the steering wheel will be off slightly. I experienced this firsthand, and I replaced my solid rear LCAs with UMI adjustables. My car tracks perfectly straight now."
