While driving 60 mph vehicle would vibrate. Took to dealer, and dealer balanced tires, but problem still exists.

(reported on)

Sportage 4WD

  • miles
Vehicle pulls from left to right 20-60 mph, especially on main hwy, pulls so hard at times that it feels like it could flip over very easily or throw me into another lane. Had dealership check the sway bar or other parts that could cause this to happen when car was in for other multiple repairs. Dealership said they found nothing wrong with it, however they only drove it 4 miles inside city limits where the speed limit is approx 25-35 miles per hour. Vehicle has been been in repairs numerous times since I bought it brand new in 10/01.
