Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: After driving a new 2066 fwd basic pacifica off the dealer lot, i noticed a general pull to the right every time i accelerated. i returned to the dealer the next day and started a process of complaining and having the car driven by chrysler employees. i have been told by a technical advisor for the dealership that it is a normal characteristic of the vehicle, by the service manager that he does not even feel a pull to the right and by a senior chrysler technician that pulling to the right when acceleration is due to road crown sensitivity. i find the vehicle very difficult to control without keeping both hands on the wheel and always being conscience of what i am doing. i find it hard to believe that this should be a characteristic of a vehicle being driven on today's highways and hope that for myself and others purchasing this vehicle that this potential safety issue will be investigated. i have also recently been informed by former employees that this was an issue when the chrysler van was first introduced. *jb
