I HAVE RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2004 VOLKSWAGEN TUAREG WITHOUT DRIVING THE VEHICLE OFF THE PARKING LOT I TOOK IT STRAIGHT TO THE SERVICE MANAGER BECAUSE THE VEHICLE FELT LIKE IT WAS PULLING HARD TO THE RIGHT. I WAS INFORMED THAT IT WAS NECESSARY TO PUT 800 PLUS MILES ON THE VEHICLE BEFORE THEY WOULD ALIGN THE FRONT END. AFTER PUTTING THE REQUIRED MILES ON THE VEHICLE IT WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH THE EXPECTATION OF AN ALIGNMENT. I PICKED THE CAR UP THAT AFTERNOON AND I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THIS CAR WAS PROPERLY ALIGNED AND THAT IT WAS VERIFIED BY TWO INDIVIDUALS WHO DROVE TO CAR. THIS VEHICLE HAS A PROPENSITY TO RAPIDLY PULL OFF THE ROAD WITH ALMOST ANY KIND OF CROWN. THE STEEPER THE CROWN THE MORE RADICAL IT WANTS TO PULL. THIS IS EITHER A BOGUS SERVICE MANAGER OR THE VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG HAS SERIOUS PROBLEMS THAT PREVENT IT FROM TRACKING DOWN THE ROAD IN A STRAIGHT LINE. I HAVE HAD BMWS, PORSCHES, GMC YUKONS AND PICKUP TRUCKS THAT STAY ON THE ROAD 100 PERCENT BETTER THAN THIS VEHICLE. I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE SOME FEEDBACK FROM OTHER OWNERS WHO MAY BE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. IT WILL ONLY BE A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THIS VEHICLE VEERS OFF A ROAD AND TAKES OUT A TELEPHONE POLE. THIS IS EITHER AN ALIGNMENT PROBLEM OR A DESIGNED FLAW. SINCERELY, HENRY MOSELEY
