Vehicle Cannot Be Safely Driven -?" Structural / Suspension Defect Suspected -?" Dealer Claims -??Repair Completed-?? Despite Unequal Wheelbase My vehicle is currently unsafe to operate, due to the following critical issues: -?? 1. Left-?"right wheelbase inconsistency The front and rear wheelbase measurements are not equal side-to-side. This is a strong indicator of structural deviation, such as: -??Subframe misalignment -??Control arm mounting point displacement -??Deformed suspension components -??Manufacturing or assembly error in chassis geometry -?? 2. Front caster angles remain abnormal -??Left caster: 3.9? -??Right caster: 4.9? -??Cross-caster difference: 1.0? A 1? difference exceeds manufacturer tolerances and causes: -??Vehicle drifting -??Poor straight-line stability -??Uneven steering return -??Potential instability during emergency braking This is a safety-related steering geometry defect. -?? 3. Real-world driving confirms unsafe behavior The vehicle cannot maintain straight-line travel, the steering wheel is off-center, and the car exhibits instability at normal speeds. This makes the vehicle unsafe to drive. -?? 4. Despite these unresolved issues, the dealership insists the vehicle is -??repaired-?? and demands that I pick it up. They refused to provide frame measurement reports or explanation for the unequal wheelbase. Returning a vehicle with unresolved steering and chassis geometry defects constitutes unsafe vehicle delivery. -?? Conclusion Based on unequal wheelbase, abnormal caster geometry, and inability to drive safely, this vehicle likely contains a structural or assembly defect. I formally request investigation, suspension geometry verification, and required action from the manufacturer, as this is a matter of public road safety.
