Hi Robert,
I’ve noticed that my 2019 Nissan Sentra has been pulling to the right lately. The car is pretty new and I haven’t damaged it, so I don’t know what’s causing the issue: what do you think?
Thanks,
John
Hi John!
When your car starts pulling in a certain direction it can be frightening. But, since your 2019 Nissan Sentra is new and undamaged, it's unlikely that there's anything majorly wrong with it.
Having an under-inflated tire commonly results in this problem. It causes one side of your vehicle to be lower than the other and shifts its alignment.
Under-inflated tires also have a greater roll resistance which further amplifies the problem.
You need to make sure all your tires have the right amount of air in them. If one is under-inflated, then you know what’s causing your Sentra to pull.
If all your tires are correctly inflated, then you should call into our Service Department and let the Technicians have a look at your vehicle as the problem may be more serious.
Thanks for the question, John! Please don’t hesitate to contact Kirkland Nissan, Washington again if you need anything else!
