Alignment issues?

[addicted2bimmers]

My x5 at low speeds tends to have the steering wheel turned slightly to the right to stay straight. Does anyone have similar issues other than the fact it moves around at high speeds?

i would first check to see if the tires pressures are all even.

I noticed that too, took to dealer. They said they fixed that but it is still the same. I have to take it back.

It gets pretty annoying tbh and then the dealer might say nothing's wrong and it's a waste of a trip

That's when I would get in the car with the service rep and show them the problem. If I felt they were playing games, I would call BMW NA while in front of them and ask for customer relations, then explain the complaint in an unemotional way. See if that helps them find the problem.

I've done this twice. It helped and got the problem fixed (although I waited 3 months for a part on one problem - but it's fixed).
