Consumer Description

PROBLEM: VEHICLE WANDERS AND REQUIRES CONSTANT CORRECTIVE STEERING INPUT FROM THE DRIVER. NO MATTER WHAT THE ROAD CONDITION( WET/DRY/FLAT/CROWNED), THE CAR WILL " DRIFT" AND OR PULL TO THE SIDE WITH OUT ANY APPARENT PATTERN, CONSEQUENTLY, INTENSE CONCENTRATION IS REQUIRED TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. ALSO, THE EFFORT TO STEER RIGHT/ LEFT IS VARIABLE, AGAIN WITH OUT A PATTERN. THE CAR IS NOT EQUIPPED WITH SPEED-SENSITIVE STEERING. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER'S SERVICE RECORDS, THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD THE SAME DIFFICULTY. THE TIRES HAVE BEEN ROTATED ON A REGULAR BASIS; THE FRONT BRAKE ASSEMBLIES HAVE BEEN REPLACED, AND I HAVE PRECISELY ADJUSTED THE TIRE PSI ALL TO NO AVAIL. I HAD A 1996 EAGLE VISION THAT HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS, THOUGH I DID NOT REPORT IT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. *AK
