Consumer Description

I SOMETIMES NOTICE AFTER MY 2003 BMW Z4 2.5I HAS BEEN PARKED, IT SEEMS AS IF THE TIRES AND STEERING WHEEL ARE MISALIGNED AND THE CAR DRIVES TO ONE SIDE AS IF ONE TIRE WAS FLAT. THIS ONLY HAS HAPPENED AT LOWER SPEEDS SOON AFTER I START DRIVING, AND EVENTUALLY SEEMS TO GO AWAY AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVING FOR A COUPLE MINUTES. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE NOW TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM BUT I PLAN ON GIVING BMW A CALL TO SEE WHAT THEY CAN DO FOR ME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR
