Description of the problem | Vehicle has pulled left ever since the tires were rotated for the first time. I've had it back to the dealer three times, with them showing me that the alignment falls within specs, and attributing the pull to road crown. I just had my 30k mile service, and they called to let me know that my tires are wearing unevenly because of alignment issues. I paid to have it aligned again and reminded them about my problems the last time (please note that my tires are supposedly rotated each time the dealer performs an oil change). I drove the vehicle home and it still pulled to the left. I am going back there today to have them road test it with me again, on the phone the tech again attributed it to road crown which i denied, but i'll see what happens. This is ridiculous that a dealership or manufacturer won't repair known issues with their vehicles.*ak |
