Description of the problem | My 2014 passat tdi vehicle pulls to the right ... On highway, in right lane, will move right off the road in less than 7 seconds if hands are not on the wheel. Dealer made some improvements .... Ie before it would run off the road in less than 3 seconds. Vw field representation claims this is normal effect of road crown and refuses to correct the condition. I drove a passat ( non diesel ) that drove fine... I drove a 2015 passat diesel that was better but still had excessive pull from road crown. I'm constantly fighting the vehicle to stay on the highway.... Especially while driving in the right lane. This is a safety issue to me ..... Vehicle will not stay on the road! |
