Description of the problem | I purchased my 2004 toyota camry limited edition in november of 2003. I began to notice that the car pulls to the left while i'm driving - especially at highway speeds. In addition the car is very sensetive to the road crown and wind. It is actually difficult to keep it in a straight line while on the highway at speeds of 65 mph. It feels like you are constantly in some type of strong crosswind. The left pull is so noticeable that i consider it a safety issue. I'm surprised someone hasn't wrecked as a result of this. The dealership advises me that there is a flaw in the engineering of the automobile and that they get this complaint quite often. I consider this an unacceptable response thus i am filing this complaint. *ak |
