When driving the vehicle pulls to the left, told em when I had the car in for sensors and one of the techs there stupidly told me, it pulls to the left coz it was built for the US market..... So does that mean non built US cars pull in the states!!!
Anyway, took it back again and they put down on the invoice, wheel alignment done, problem rectified...... I drive it away and same problem.... Let the wheel go and it pulls
I know it's not the road as I drive the same route to and from work each day and my wife's Civic hatch drives gun barrel straight
It's now going back for a third time to Ravenhall Jeep
After 12 months mine still tracks straight down the road like one would expect from a new vehicle..
I'd be taking it to a tyre dealer who has a good wheel alignment machine.
I had same problem.
Take it to a tyre specialist. It's a tricky job and it took them 2hrs to get it right.
A mechanic at a dealer wouldn't have the skill or patience.
I have had this problem for last 40k, after many wheel alignments from bob jane and pedders no one able to fix it. Any recommended wheel alignment place in Sydney?
Mine is at castle hill jeep now getting alignment done for its first service (just the 1500km one, not the real service) - I can vouch that they haven't sent it out, they drive it around over to the shed sign posted as "Mitsubishi service" and they put it up on a hoist while doing the alignment (I assume to get underneath and make the adjustments) - highest hoist I've seen during an alignment tho..
I'll keep you posted if they fix mine (also told them the Orange rubber on my air filter is cracking from new).
I posted this in another thread, but here it is again.......
I have just done a bit over 26,000kms, all trouble free. My tyres (Michelins) look about 1/2 worn and I noticed the other day the front left was wearing a bit on the outside edge and I was pretty sure it seemed to be pulling a bit to the left. But I wasn't sure if it was the road camber and an over active imagination.
I did the rotation myself and took it in for a wheel alignment today.....what a difference. I thought it felt OK before, but after, it now feels like the car is floating and the steering is lighter and no having to hold it to the right.
I gave them the details of the TSB and he had to do a bit of extra research about how to do the adjustments and a couple of test drives to get it right, he took about 1.5 hours to get it done.
The guy doing the wheel alignment gave me a blow by blow commentary, he loved the car.
Money well spent.........
I have now done 36,000kms including a reasonable amount of dirt road work work in Tasmania and it still feels great.
:thumbsup:
I describe it as the wheel alignment in the GC as being correct when you can tell on which side of the lane you are on by the very small difference in pressure required either way to keep it there.
