Highlander XLE 3.5L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 200 miles

Vehicle wanders. It needs constant adjustment. Driving it wears you out, as you are constantly fighting to keep it in a straight line & under control. Will track OK for just a second, then will drift left or right. As soon as you get it back in control, it drifts the other way. The car does not pull but simply will not track straight. My other car does not have this problem. Other drivers notice it too. Passengers in the 3rd seat complain of getting carsick because of the constant swaying.

It is not the crown in the road causing the problem, as it happens on every road or highway regardless of the size or condition of the road. The tires do not act as though they are out of balance. There is no wobble in the steering wheel nor is there any odd vibration in the drive train. The tires are new Michelins. This started immediately after purchasing it new.

I have taken it to the dealer to get tires checked & rotated as per manufacturer's recommendations. When I mentioned this to service writer, I was told mechanic couldn't take it on a test ride at that time. I haven't taken it back to leave it, as I can't be without a car.
