The front wheel should be symmetric. Do the spokes seem to be in different angle of something? Check that the wheel is the right way. If it is disc hub one the disc mount should be on the left side of the bike.

right in that case it should be built properly but you never know with machines. if you take it to a shop tell them to check your frame alighnment aswell before they even touch the wheel

could be a number of things but obviously without seeing the bike i cant say for sure but it sounds like the wheel just needs dishing
