I guess the special oil you are using isn't helping?   My 300 used to pull to the right and after a few visits to the dealer nothing changed. So after all that frustration I decided not to rotate the tires to see where the problem was. The driver side front wheel had too much toe in. I did the alignment myself and 50,000 km later with new tires there is no unusual tire wear or pulling. I didn't rotate the new tires on purpose to see if my alignment didn't simply force the car into behaving. The left front wheel was 7mm out!! Don't the dealers and Chrysler use something better than my measuring tape???

Replying to: xtec (Aug 09, 2006 8:35 pm) The alignment has to be performed WITH a cradle adjustment and new bolts. I found the TSB on line after an alignment, took the car back in and done the cradle adjustment and it now steers perfectly.   Originally, the dumbazz service manager tried to tell me that Chrysler built them to pull to the right " in case of a medical condition" if you lost control it wouldn't go into oncoming traffic.   I informed him that he already had a medical problem and suggested that he see a brain surgeon immediately. lol

Replying to: varob (Nov 29, 2007 11:53 am) Had same Problem at same miles, have a look at your inner tie rod. I had to wait almost 7 weeks for my tie rod from the dealer very popular item. Let me know how it works out for you.

Lift the front end off the ground. Chances are you will get wobble. The ball joint is connected to a shaft and you must buy it in one piece as it is an interdependant part. This is likely your wobble problem and most likely your pulling also. (crappy design.) If you don't have it repaired then your tie rods are soon to follow. I had to travel 2000 kilometers to get home and replace it and lord god don't hit the brakes at high speeds.
