Dt: the contact stated the vehicle pulled to the left and to the right. However, more to the left. The tires have been maintained with proper air inflation. Road conditions or speed did not appear to impact the pulling. After the first incident the dealer aligned the front of the vehicle. This did not correct the pulling problem. The vehicle was returned to the dealer, and the rear of the vehicle was aligned. This,…

I bought a 2003 toyota camry le in jan.04 and test drove it and it pulled to the left and the salesperson said it was tire pressure so they adjusted it. We drove the car a long distance and the whole time it pulled to the left. I have just found out that toyota has a tsb out on 2003-2004 camry's with this problem. This is a safety concern and there should be a recall on these vehicles.

This car pulls left and tracks poorly under most driving conditions. It is especially bad in crosswinds and on wet roadways. It was originally established by the dealership that low caster angle was to blame. The dealer was able to loosen and jiggle the engine cradle to get the caster on the minimum specification for caster, but this has done nothing to correct the poor handling. After 4 visits and much unnecessary…
