Chris ...sounds to me like your driving style is a little wrong as the steering shouldn't automatically return to the central position unless you release your hands from the wheel. What you need to check first are the pressures and condition of the tyres, tracking and suspension. Does the vehicle have power assisted steering? Have you checked the fluid level to the power steering resevoir if it has?
