Lead/Pull Description
At a constant highway speed on a typical straight road, lead/pull is the amount of effort required at the steering wheel to maintain the vehicle's straight path.
Note:
Vehicles will tend to lead/pull in the direction of the road slope as part of normal operation.
Lead/pull is usually caused by the following factors:
* Road slope
* Variability in tire construction
* Wheel alignment (front cross caster and camber)
* Unbalanced steering gear
* Electronic power steering (EPS) steering position and torque sensors not calibrated correctly, if equipped
