“2004 Toyota solara pulls to the left. The car has 28,000 miles on it and I see where my second set of tiers are near ruined do to the issue. Repeated alignments have not resolved the issue--which Toyota is aware of (st002-04).”

“My husband and I just recently bought a 2004 solara. At first everything was good then the tire pressure light came on and would never turn off. That has been going on for like 4 months now. The big incident/problem is I was driving 10mph and the car started to drift to the right. I attempted to correct this issue by turning the steering wheel to the left but it would not correct. So I slowly pushed on the brakes and it would not stop. What finally stopped me was the wheel fell off. Yes the wheel fell off. …”

The car has had a constant pulling to the left and they have repurchased 1 Camry Solara from me already. After stating that it was 1 bad car and that they had problems with the sport suspension , I purchased an sle without the sport suspension. I am having the same problem and they have told me that it is the 'crown of the road', not the car. The car will go from the left lane to the median strip in less than 1 second and they said that happens with 'all cars'. …”
