If your steering wheel isn't straight, your alignment is probably off. Take your car in and get the alignment done and that should take care of it.

remember also that roads usually have some angle (tilted) so the car might not track straight even with the steering wheel dead 12oclock. so my test is kinda like this: close to 12 o clock, let go of the steering wheel while going straight, if the car tracks left, turn the wheels slightly to the right. if the car then tracks right, then its aligned. if it tracked left again, i would drive a couple more miles and do the test again. if it kept tracking left, then I would need to get an alignment.
