Hello all,
I bought a 2018 power wagon which was a demo model and had about 9k miles on it. It’s currently sitting at 41k miles and honestly I’m starting to hate it.
About 6 months ago the truck started to randomly pull to the right. I’m talking severe. You let go of the wheel and it just goes right over the line. So you have to fight the thing to keep a straight line. Well I let it go for a while until my tires started to feather/wear unevenly. I took it into the shop to have it aligned and the tires rotated. After the alignment and rotation, the truck still pulled to the right in the same exact fashion. I chalked it up to the tires being worn and just left it.
A few months later I noticed that both front tires were worn/cupped on the outside, right more than left. So I thought this will all be resolved once I put new tires on it, which I did today.
I put brand new tires on, had the shop align it again, took off and what do you know? It still pulls to the right in the exact same way.
I returned to the shop, they swapped sides with the tires to see if it was a tire issue, no change.
They put it back on the alignment and aligned it again but they said it was not really out again. I took it down the road, no change. Still pulling to the right.
I called the shop (it was closing time) and told them the issue remains, he said to bring it back and they would look harder at it, but he admitted they are really at a loss as to what the problem could be and he actually refunded my alignment.
So my question is, what gives? Anyone have any ideas?
