This concern may occur if the vehicle’s suspension has been modified (lift or lowering kit), wheelbase length modified (limo, etc.), wrong steering gear installed, and/or other than stock size wheels and tires installed. Before any in-depth diagnostics are performed, check for the possibility of these modifications.
