Description of the problem	The 2006 kia sedona pulled to the left since the day i bought it. The front end has been aligned numerous times and two different kia dealerships insisted that crowning" of roads in my area was causing this. Funny how no other vehicle i've ever had has ever pulled to the left on the very same roads. I have been told by the two kia dealerships that all vehicles "drift" or "veer" to the left when you let go of the steering wheel. Again, this has not been a problem with any other vehicle i've owned in the last 20+ years. My van can now be considered a lemon because it has been to the shop five times. There was also a loud "bumping" noise in the front end when steering sharply to the right and downward. No service personnel at either dealership could cause the noise so, to them it did not exist. They refused to ride with me so i could demonstrate but then finally they did and they heard it! On service trip number five, they replaced bushings on the front end and the noise is gone. This vehicle still "drifts" or "pulls" or "veers" or "meanders" to the left when you turn loose of the wheel. Getting someone to agree with that is an uphill battle that i have not yet won. *ak
