It could be tire pressure, it could be damage to a suspension component, or even a failed wheel speed sensor. Try to narrow down the possible culprits and the forum may be able to help a bit more.

could be either the steering angle sensor or wheels alignment off.

I'm gonna go with steering angle sensor. A wheel sensor would have set triggered an ABS light as well. If you have the car scanned it will show you the failed sensor.

It could be tire pressure, it could be damage to a suspension component, or even a failed wheel speed sensor.
