Consumer Description

CAR PULLS TO THE RIGHT. DOES NOT STEER LINEAR. IT IS HARD TO DETERMINE WHERE THE CAR IS GOING WITH THIS PULL. IT DRIVES LIKE THIS ALL THE TIME. IT IS ESPECIALLY DIFFICULT IN WET WEATHER. IT HAS BEEN LIKE THIS SINCE I PURCHASED IT NEW. THE DEALER HAS TRIED ROTATING TIRES AND ROTATING STRUT TOWERS, BUT NO RESOLVE. THE DEALER TOLD ME IT'S A STEERING SOFTWARE PROBLEM IN WHICH THEY HAVE NO FIX FOR. *TR
