Default Steering problem after granddaughter abuse

2008 TXT. The steering was just fine before my Granddaughter sat in the cart and yanked the wheel back and forth. Wife saw her and told her to stop. Now it will only turn partially left and right it turns way more then before. Steering wheel is about 1/2 revolution clockwise when running straight. It does not pull one way or the other. When going in a straight line you can take your hands off the wheel and it continues straight. I know how to adjust steering wheel and will do that later but for now I want to fix the difference in turning radius problem.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

A picture of an old man sitting on a park bench with his Faithfull dog looking up at him would be nice!!!

Seriously though, on the assumption that you have the steering rack on the front axle, maybe the pinion has jumped teeth on the rack inside the steering assembly. Can't see how it might change the amount of movement from one side to the other, it would put the steering wheel in the wrong position though? I wonder if you could shoot a video from the front while someone turns the steering wheel from lock to lock. Maybe we could see what is happening.
