Steering Angle Position Sensor R53

Has anyone had any issues with the Steering Angle Position Sensor on their R53 ? My R53 shows DTC and TPMS light after an alignment? Thanks...

It's possible I would code and calibrate it.

The same thing happened to me after an alignment. They goofed and the steering wheel was a few degrees off when driving straight. A collaboration would have probably worked, but I did not want my steering wheel off. I took it back and they got it re-aligned close enough for the error to go away right away on its own.
