We have an LS Focus CL Sedan in the family and have a big issue with it pulling to the left, its had 3 allignments etc so far in 5000 kays, went back to Bob jane this morning and they said its a production fault with the car, the left control arm is too far back.
What i want to know is if anyone else has issues with them pulling to the left?

Hmmm. No I haven't noticed it happening on our LS. But then again I wasn't looking out for it. Sounds like a job for Ford. Wonder how that got thru Q.C.?

Does the pull change if the car is accelerating or braking?

Nope, but it does pull harder to the left when braking.

Nope, none of that, the car is basically brand new.
Dealer found the issue tho. Stupid Tyre companies! Should be fixed by the end of the day by putting the front to the back and back to front.
