im not sure how acurate this is but a car should pull slightly to the right (or left depending on the country) but not be very noticable in case you fall asleep or something wouldn't want to kill anybody (thats what they said in drivers ed)

Cool RA pulling?

dude my car pulls to the sides sometimes too like b4 i noticed it pulled to the left and then i got my tires rotated and then a lil bit to the right, just get new tires or something man i think thats more of the problem anyways, i went to my dealer and they did the same thing and i was like wtf u didnt fix ****! well the psi was under in the front 2 tires. other than that like one of the other guys said im used to kepping my car center, so when i drive another car i find my self drifting to the right a lil... im not really knowledgeable in cars but i think it might be the sh!tty @ss tires bro!

Why not a paintless dent repair? They go from the other side and massage the metal back out. It looks perfect and the paint is untouched.

Yeah it does, but I think the point is he just paid brand new price for something that was damaged right off the lot. That isn't cool.

Look into the dentless repair. That would be a good solution too

Does it pull to the left in any other lane? Some highways here around town slope left for drainage reasons. i notice it more around 70ish.

You should allow them to paint the car over. have you actually looked at your paint. i'm not sure how many other people have the "orange peel" look to the paint under the clearcoat. have them respray the entire car.

Holy jesus. I've never seen such horrible grammar and spelling, ever. I couldn't even read your post it was so bad. It's probably hard to get respect from a dealership or anyone for that matter, when you can't even speak. That's probably 1/2 your problem with the dealership right there.

i am kind of new to these cars as well but i may have a few things for you to check. first off your profile says you have a ralliart car? isn't the ralliart car different from the RS? i was under the impression the RS is the evolution and the ralliart was a regular lancer with a body kit. next, as for rotating the tires, on my EVO 8 you really can't rotate the tires because they are uni-directional (without removing them from the wheel and remounting them correct?) (front to back is the only acceptable rotation, which is ok with the wheel sizes being the same F/B). next any car with wider tires such as the EVO's track really bad. what i mean by this is: the roads in michigan have really deep "wells" where the common path for tires are. so when i had my porsche on the highway, the car would pull really hard left when i was in a well, but if i drove a little to the side of the well, it would track straight. this was very road specific and it only happened on ONE highway. you keep saying your car pulls left in the left lane, but not in the right lane. try driving your car at 70 on a different highway, does the same thing still happen?

oh, my bad, you did say RA, not RS. i was getting my BS confused with RS and thought your RA was an RS. any you said you wanted an RS but you have an RA... hehehe anyway, the tracking comment should still apply to an RA.

Ok, first off, he's originally from Argentina and English is a second language to him. Second off, give him a damn break and learn all the facts before you start making judgments.
