Why Does the Steering of Tiggo 8 Pro Wander o r Require Constant Corrections on Highway Drives?
Some owners report that when driving at steady speed — especially on highways — the Tiggo 8 Pro seems to “wander” left and right and does not stay centered, forcing frequent steering corrections.

What could cause this behavior alignment issues, front suspension geometry, tyre quality/pressure, o r steering-rack tolerance? Is this a widespread problem in Pakistani-assembled Tiggo 8 Pro units, and how should a buyer inspect o r test-drive to detect this before purchase?

Some owners claim that on open roads o r highways the Tiggo 8 Pro “does not stay centered” — the steering tends to drift left and right so you need constant small corrections.

Another wrote that under hard acceleration there is noticeable “torque steer” — the power delivery tries to pull the car to one side, requiring firm counter-steering.

Why this happens probable technical reasons:
Could stem from suspension tuning and geometry: if suspension springs/shocks o r alignment isn’t ideal for Pakistani roads, the car may become unstable at high speed o r under torque.
Tyre / grip / traction differences — if tyres are poor quality o r mismatched, o r wear unevenly, the steering response and stability on straight roads can suffer.
Power delivery from engine/DCT plus front-wheel drive can lead to asymmetric forces under acceleration, exaggerating instability — especially if torque-steer compensation steering geometry, suspension, tyres is modest.
What to check when inspecting / test-driving:
On a quiet highway road, drive at a steady speed and see if the steering stays centered o r drift happens — test both light and firm throttle.
Try with different tyre pressures as recommended, check alignment and ensure tyres are of decent quality and balanced.
Test during acceleration from standstill and while overtaking to feel if there is torque-steer o r pulling to one side.
