Consumer Description

VEHICLE DRIVES TO THE RIGHT WHEN STEERING WHEEL IS POSITIONED IN THE CENTER POSITION. STRAIGHT-LINE DRIVING POSITION IS SEVERAL DEGREES TO THE LEFT. PULL TO THE RIGHT WAS AMPLIFIED WITH SPEED; HIGHWAY DRIVING WAS VERY NOTICEABLE. DEALER PERFORMED AN ALIGNMENT AT 1600 MILES AND FOUND REAR CAMBER, REAR TOE, AND FRONT LEFT TOE OUT OF SPEC. IMMEDIATELY AFTERWARDS THE PROBLEM REMAINED. TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER AT 2200 MILES FOR ANOTHER ALIGNMENT. VEHICLE STILL HAS SLIGHT PULL TO THE RIGHT BUT THE STEERING WHEEL REMAINS OFF-CENTER. AGAIN, STRAIGHT-LINE DRIVING POSITION IS SEVERAL DEGREES TO THE LEFT. *TR
