 Description of the problemOn 5/17/2014 we bought the car under there verbal, that they would fix the car from pulling right. They scheduled us to bring the car back 5/29/2014 to fix the pull to the right and have cosmetics done to the car. 5/30/2014 we picked up the car, on 6/5/2014 we brought the car back to the dealership the car still pulls right, dealership had the car three weeks trying to fix the right pull. They changed the tires from hankook to continentals, this helped a little and we took the car. 2/16/2015 we brought the car back to the dealership the car is pulling us out of the lane within 4 seconds, if you don't pull down on the steering left, the car takes you right. We understand that the car meets vw specs for aligment, we have had two other companies verify this, and they state its pulls right. I would like to find out if we can have this car inspected for safety issues, taking you out of your lane (always right), in 4 seconds we feel this is a huge safety issue.
