Default Not a CRV

I have a CRV, 2 years old.

I have had no end of drama with its lack of ability to drive in a straight line.

Have had it wheel aligned and balanced many many times. The Honda agent tells me that it is "a little camber sensitive" by design.

I say that if you are driving at 70kmph on a normally cambered road, you have to right hand down on the wheel to go straight. If you let the wheel go and count to two the wheel will immediately flick over to 1/10 turn and you're in the tree line. It is driving slightly better at the moment because my local beaurepairs have misaligned to make it drive straighter.

Everything else is excellent - but it is just waiting for an opportunity to catch me out.

Maybe I bought the lemon, but I though I would share

Regards

Hogster
