I just purchased a 2012 Optima SX and it pulls Left. In two weeks I have been to the dealer 3 times and they claim there is nothing wrong. Today they are checking the wheel alignment but I had to insist the alignment be checked or they were not going to check it. I am very frustrated. Reading the comments I realize this has been an on going problem. I wish I had read the comments first and I would not have bought the car. Does anyone have the fix? Please help. The dealership has not been helpful.

    Im scared to ask but have they rotated the tires to see if they have a bad tire pull?

    The dealer was not helpful. The third time it was in the shop I asked if they did an alignment check and they said no because they did not think there was an abnormal pull. They kept telling me it was just the electronic steering. They did not check alignment until I demanded they put it in writing that I requested an alignment check and they were denying it...then they checked the alignment and of course it was within specs. It was at that point that I was just glad to get rid of it. I had no faith in them being able to fix it and I did not want to drive it any more because I felt it would always pull left. I had read about too many other Optima owners like me and there is no good answer to the pull left issue.
