Another pro alignment shop rig would confirm this and be hard evidence to get re-done

The front to back wheel truck requires that the steering wheels be absolutely straight. This seemingly simple measurement isn’t always easy to do and likely isn’t accurate enough to tell you anything. This is why I suggested taking it to an alignment shop. They can measure that properly and will let you know if it’s out of whack. Some alignment shops will do a check for free.
