| Description of the problem | The steering in my 2010 toyota yaris. I took the car to the dealer and told them the steering wheel was not centered. I left the car for 3 hours and came back and all they wrote on the paper was the tires were low on air. That was not true i had check that and also let the car get 1450 miles on it so the tires would wear in correct thing that would make the steering wheel centered. Then i went back to get the car and it took it for a test ride and it was not right. Then i took a ride with mechanic he knew what i was talking about then they took the car to align the front end and it still was not centered the steering wheel. Also when i asked the service manager was the steering wheel centered he said they did the aliment and would say they centered the wheel. This electric steering is not right and handles very bad. Its a new car. This is a problem the day i got the car. |
