Hello all!
I have a 2015 LT1 RS that has just passed 16k miles. I've had it into the dealer for every scheduled service on time. After this last tire rotation, I noticed that it had developed a pull to the right at speed. Well, it seems a bit early for an alignment issue but I figured I'd have it checked. Scheduled the service and kept checking it as I was driving. I noticed that it's not just pulling to the right. I was on a section of highway where there are a lot of little bridges. The car would pull to the right, and then I'd hit the seam to a bridge which had a bump, not bad but enough to feel, and then the car would pull to the left really hard. Hit another bump and back to the right.
That doesn't sound like alignment anymore, that sounds like something.... more.
The dealer appointment was this morning and they said all it needed was a wheel balance and alignment, so we'll see. It's still in there, but I wanted to hear all of your thoughts about the issue. I don't drive on rough roads, in fact my main commuting road just got completely rebuilt the year before I bought the Cruze, so I don't think road condition is causing the issue.... Is 16k too soon to need an alignment / balance? Does it switching directions after bumps indicate alignment? or something more?
Just confused at this point.
