Another option I would recommend that you do regardless is to run a Carfax report. At the very least you can get a good history on the car. If you are lucky, you'll see the vast majority of the maintenance done on the car.

How does that work. Is that is the maintenance is done by the dealer? I do all my owm maintenance so I guess my car show up as non-maintained?

For example, I had an alignment done earlier today. Now I have to hold the steering wheel a good bit to the left so I can stay straight on the road.

I always check out the oil dipstick if it looks burnt odds are the po let the oil go also I look into the oil fill hoping I can see the rockers that way you can get an idea of what the rest of the engine looks like

It is maintenance done by the dealer and most shops. It gets logged in a national database that CarFax pulls from. This is why it is important for owners who maintain their own cars to keep records. Unless you plan on keeping your car forever that is.
