Dealer said nothing wrong with my Pro vibrating and drifting to the right. Claims alignment is good but service advisor couldn’t provide me any specs from the checker. When pressed the service manager said they couldn’t test because alignment checker wasn’t updated for 25 model year and claims specs for 2024 are different. As far as the vibrations they are blaming it on the all terrain tires which they say is normal. I called bs on both and said if it’s the tires then let me drive the Trailhunter they have on the lot so I can see if it vibrates like my Pro and service manager quickly said they have different suspension :rolleyes:. Now I guess I have to find another local dealer that can run it through the alignment checker.
For the hard shifting they said they couldn’t reproduce but said to drop it off at night and they could test it the next morning while it is cold.
There is no difference between the 24"s and the 25"s with regards to suspension and tire configuration,

My ‘25 Limited is a week old and less than 300 miles. I feel like it tracks straight but the wheel is slightly tilted to the right. Making me crazy. If I center the wheel, it’s pulling left. Taking it in tomorrow morning.

If the crown of the road naturally pulls you right, there should be a left correction. Instead I’m correcting right.

Your steering wheel needs to be centered, super easy job!

So it turns out my front toes were out of spec. Had to hold the wheel to the right to get it to go straight. They tried to give me the “crown of the road” argument but my corrections were opposite of what they were trying to explain. Tech ran it and said it needs an alignment. Day 6 of ownership. 242 total miles.

Feeling better and not so much like the crazy person they were acting like I was.

This thread is about the PRO. Very different from a Limited.
