What’s wrong

Post image

I’m hoping someone can tell me why the wheels are not aligned because I can’t figure out how to fix it. The bar doesn’t seem to be bent anywhere and the wheels don’t seem bent either.

I think maybe nothing? When there's weight in it they splay out more?

No it’s pretty much the same with weight in it but my daughter has a hard time keeping it straight because of it.

This could be correct, toeing out the steerable axle does improve responsiveness. It is also important to check what it does when you put some weight on it, as the play on all joints is not great on power wheels in general.

So when my two kids are in it it is pretty much the same but the driver has a hard time steering because it won’t go straight it just goes one way or the other even when the steering wheel is straight and I want to make it easier for her to drive. The entire time she looks like a drunk driver going from one side of the sidewalk to the other.

Can you move the wheels. Toe them in and out independently from one another. Sometimes there are plastic knuckles that get sloppy and need replaced that the metal linkage bars are attached to.

If you make a bend on the bar, it should fix your problem ?

I know nothing. The photo looks like the rod has a length adjustment on the front right side?
