Sounds like it's a trip back to the dealers for them to correct it. I think they've over adjusted on one side & then had to adjust the other to get it to 'line up'. But then in the end it sounds out of track, so get em to do it again..  Bodsys Brake Bible

Both track rods should be adjusted equally, but if tracking was slightly out they only adjust one side, which is laziness  You may find that the steering is pulling as it's trying to return to centre, another sign only one side has been adjusted. Your steering wheel should be centralised, so no you're not nit-picking. Tell the stealers you want it put right.

Get them to check the ball joints and steering rods whilst they are at it.
Can lead to 'vague' steering. “There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely gamesâ€
