Perfectly centered
of to the left a bit
of to the right a bit
of to the left a lot
of to the right a lot
Perfectly centered. Why not do a poll? Or, did you try to?

Perfectly centered.

Is was slightly to the left after the dealer updated CIP and forgot to reset AS, but that was easily remedied.
I forget. How do you reset AS? Thanks in advance. What are the symptoms of not resetting--ignoring the wheel apparently being slightly off?
You dealer needs to do it. It's an issue related to when the dealer updates your CIP--they need to reset AS and my dealer forgot to.

Thanks. What were your symptioms?

The only symptom was the day after I had the car in for service, driving on the highway I noticed the steering wheel was slightly off center--the top was facing ~11:30 instead of 12:00. No pulling like you'd get if the car was out of alignment, just an off center steering wheel.
