2020 Ranger - Alignment Issues
 

It all started when I bought four new tires and asked the shop to perform an alignment. BIG MISTAKE...apparently. Not only did they screw up my alignment, but they failed to balance my new tires. It was quite the bumpy ride!

Immediately my truck was pulling left and I have to keep my steering wheel turned to the right to go straight. I didn't want to deal with a shop that didn't know to balance new tires again so I took it to a different shop and had my tires balanced and the alignment done again. The tires were balanced properly, but my truck was still slightly pulling left. I continued to drive the truck for another week or so and decided that something wasn't right and I should get it looked at again. Originally I had purchased "lifetime alignment service" from the original (bad) shop and decided to have it checked at another shop owned by the same corporation. The third shop performed the alignment and unfortunately the truck is STILL pulling left. My truck has been aligned FOUR times and still isn't correct.

One thing I noticed on all the alignment data sheets is the shops are using specs for Ford Ranger 2019-21 (USA/Canada) 4x4 (except Tremor) (except Bridgestone 255/70R/16). The problem is my truck came with Bridgestone 255/70R/16 tires. I have brought this up with the shops and they tell me that this doesn't matter and that the specs are correct for my truck.

I have no idea what to do at this point. I don't want to put unnecessary wear and tear on my truck due to a poor alignment, but don't know who I can trust at this point. I dread having to take it to the dealer and pay MORE money.

I have attached the latest alignment report.

My truck has no modifications. All stock.

Is it actually pulling left or is your steering wheel just off center?

I guess it may just be the steering wheel. If it is, how is this fixed? It pulls when I center my steering wheel when driving.

Alignment shops often don't tie off the steering wheel in the center when doing the alignment
They just put steering wheel on closest lock to center because its easier to let the steering wheel lock hold it "near center" than doing it the right way

So take it back and tell them to CENTER the steering wheel, i.e. DO IT RIGHT
