Consumer Description

WHEN YOU DRIVE WITH THE STEERING WHEEL STRAIGHT THE JEEP PULLS TO THE RIGHT. SO IF YOU WANT TO GO STRAIGHT YOU MUST TURN THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT. WAS TOLD ALL THE PATRIOTS DO THIS DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION. IF THAT'S THE CASE I WOULD LIKE THIS ISSUE TO BE FIXED CAUSE I BELIEVE THAT'S A SCAM MAKING PEOPLE BELIEVE IT'S A GOOD VECHILE KNOWING THERE IS A PROBLEM.
