Just picked up my 2010 135

Driving from Houston to Atlanta.

It's a 12 year old car, with only 40k miles.

But steering feels … idk, loose. Like the wheel needs a lot of attention to stay straight.

A little wobbly.

I'm guessing that means I need shocks/struts.

But also the steering wheel points to about 12:30. Just a little off.

Could it just be an alignment?

Car is in amazing shape besides the steering.

Advice?

Congrats. Sounds to me like an alignment issue.
