You need to have your car checked to see if anything is bent. You could probably take your car to an alignment shop and they could try to align it. If they can't then you will have to replace the bent part first.

If you can figure out the parts to replae, you would still need to get an alignment done after the repair and promechanic's suggestion of getting the problem checked at the alignment shop should be attended to first.
