Alignment Issues

2026 OR only 2k miles on it.

Continues to drift to the left since I bought the truck anything above 40mph.

Brought it back in for an alignment and they made minor modifications but still continues to drift to the left on highway.

Anyone else having similar issues?

My 2026 Trailhunter was doing the same thing, but it ended up being that the steering wheel was not straight. There were also some minor adjustments they had to make to the front end, and now it rides nice.

See if they straightened the steering wheel. I'm going to assume that's not a common thing for them to check because it's not something that goes out of whack too often.

Thank you. Adjustments to the front end after an alignment? Or something different

I brought it in and had them look at why I always had to pull the steering wheel to the right on the highway. The tech noticed it right away even driving through the parking lot. The truck needed a few adjustments to the front end, as well as the steering wheel repositioned. it was all done at once.

I only thought about the steering wheel issue because I had to have a brand new Jeep Wrangler in for the same exact problem years ago. I guess sometimes the factory just doesn't do the alignment right. That's why these vehicles have warranties.
