Maybe not. Someone probably 'aligned' your front wheels without locking the steering. You could have it re-done right to center the steering wheel, or you could remove the steering wheel yourself and put it back on clocked on different splines. The small amount of play may be due to the telescoping sections below the dash, and is easy to check if you lay under the dash with a flashlight & turn the wheel a bit. If not, then it may be rack-bushing time.
