Hi all, not sure if anyone else has had this issue but I got my C220 brand new back in June this year, all was good for the first 6000 miles the car handled well and felt sure footed on the road, now though its developed a pull to the right under acceleration and feels like it constantly wants to drif to the left on straight roads on a neutral throttle, the whole thing just feels not quite right.

kinda feels like the chassis is twisting but I know that can't be right, I've got it booked into the dealer in Jan for a cracking window seal issue and will also bring this up but wanted any advice in the meantime. Thanks in advance guys.

Sounds like you need a wheel alignment.......

+1 Certainly not torque steer

I'm hoping that's all it is but I've no idea how a brand new car would go out of alignment so fast, it's never had so much a kerb scuff.

A good pothole and your alignment can go out.......

Totally agree mikey, pretty well impossible on a rwd , but as I say it pulls pretty hard to the right when accelerating and feels exCtly like torque steer. (Even though it can't be )

If the op is in the uk he will hit plenty of potholes. I visited twice this year and the roads are in an appalling condition not helped by the utility companies forever digging them up and placing inspection covers in the carriageways.
