Hey, I've got a serious problem with my Vios. I have had this problem like 6 months ago. My alignment is pulling to the left. I did my alignment almost every 2 months and after the alignment, the car is still pulling to the left. Until last week, I went to service my car at Toyota and they confirm that my absorber are still in good condition. So can anyone please let me know what the problem is. I also did my alignment at Toyota last week and it came out still the same (pulling to the left).

EP200 Bridgestone..already done 4times in 6 months still the problem persists. I even did chamber and balancing.. Just so frustrating and I use that to travel frequently.

did you tried to rotate front and rear tyres? just to see if the thread wear is even or not.

do check the tyre manufacturing date. my uncle using EP200 as well for years, no misaligned so far.

As for the camber thingy, by right its not necessary as Vios camber setup is fixed. Unless you install adjustable camber just to tune your wheel setup to -ve configuration.
My other ride also got this issue once i changed sports rim and tyre. Seems like the uni-rotational tyre thread thats causing the left prone driving. Then, i changed rims+tyres again and this problem gone. Since your rim is stock, so i believe most probably its the tyre thats causing the misaligned driving; provided that you never crash your car that causes the suspensions to screwed up.

nope..everything is stock and have never crashed before. i got conned by the shop as he told me my camber is off and needed a tune..

I just rotated my rear to front and the same problem happens again...just pure fed up...im afraid my tyre will have uneven wear...

then you need to find a sifu alignment shop to check out the suspension and tyres and camber setup. Maybe Toe In/Out issue as well.

this fella very good with suspension, balancing and alignment. Do make a call for appointment before dropping by.
