the original direction to the left or the right direction.
2. Vehicle Deviation Benchmark :
A. When the vehicle is driving a straight line at a certain speed, it is necessary to impose force on the steering wheel to prevent its
clockwise or counterclockwise rotation.

right direction (usually travel 100 m (3,940 in) from the original travel direction 1 m (39.4 in) or above).
Note
Before correct the deviation, check the following basic items
A. Check whether the front and rear brakes are dragging.
B. Check on the same suspension, whether the tire wear difference is too great.
C. Check on the same suspension, whether the tire pressure difference is too great.
If there is any abnormal item, please adjust to the normal state before road testing the vehicle. Confirm whether the
fault has been excluded.
