TRUCK WANDERS AS IF IT HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN. WITH THE STEERING WHEEL STEADY IT WANDERS FROM LEFT TO RIGHT . WE HAVE HAD IT IN THE SHOP 7 TIMES SINCE PURCHASED AND THEY ALIGN IT EACH TIME WITH NO CHANGE. DEALER TOLD ME AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE THAT HE WOULD TAKE IT BACK IF I WASN'T SATISFIED, BUT HAS NOW DENIED SAYING IT.WE HAVE BEEN THROUGH THE REVIEW BOARD PROCESS.THEY OFFERED A REPLACEMENT TRUCK, BUT I WAS SO AFRAID OF GETTING ANOTHER ONE THAT I JUST ASKED FOR A REFUND, WHICH THEY REFUSED. THE GENTLEMAN THAT THEY SENT TO DRIVE WITH ME SAID THAT AN ALIGNMENT WOULD NOT FIX THE PROBLEM, THAT IT WAS A DESIGN PROBLEM. HE SAID THAT IT WOULD BE EVEN WORSE IF WE HAD A HEAVY LOAD IN IT. IN HIS REPORT HOWEVER, HE TOLD THE REVIEW BOARD THAT ALL IT NEEDED WAS AN ALIGNMENT .THE ONLY TIME I DRIVE THE TRUCK NOW IS IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION AS IT IS TOO STRESSFUL TO DRIVE ON A REGULAR BASIS..*AK
