| Description of the problem | Bought this car without driving, was sent from another dealer. The car i did test drive seemed to wander a bit when driving. Reported this to salesperson. He responded yes they drive differently. I said i guess it just takes some getting used to. Picked up my car a week later. All over the road, scared to death to drive. It wanders so badly on the highway i cannot control it. I have parked it in my garage with 175 miles on it after owning for 10 days. Drove to work 2 times and back. Told the dealership about issue, was told that is ridiculous, that they told me it drives "differently" and that i knew that. I told them i expected a different ride, but not a ride where i feel i am going to lose control of the car and die! They also told me they have heard of no issues with the steering on these cars, when i am finding it everywhere i look! They are not willing to help, saying i can only trade it in for something different they sell. I paid $40,000 cash. This is not buyers remorse, it is a definite safety issue and i am not going to drive it. I have a 2019 porsche macan but was looking for something with a little more traction for winter. The traction is fine on the 2019 jeep, but i cannot drive it as i feel so unsafe. Nor do i want to trade it in and have someone else buy it and get hurt in it |
