| Description of the problem | I have brought in my vehicle for alignment three times to two different places, and no matter what is done to repair the problem, the vehicle always pulls hard to the right. Now the mechanic is straight up telling me i should have been included in recall nhtsa campaign number: 09v124000 but that because i am not in a salt belt state i do not qualify for the recall. However, the nature of this problem is making the car difficult and unsafe to drive. If you are trying to go straight forward, you must keep several pounds of pressure on the wheel to prevent the car going to the right. This has been a problem since we bought the car, and we have spent several thousands of dollars over the years trying to resolve the issue. Now i see there is a known problem with this car, i believe the manufacturer should be responsible. They have sprayed salt on the bridges of houston everytime it freezes. Our car most certainly has been exposed to salt. |
