THE CAR DRIFTS ALL OVER THE HIGHWAY AT NORMAL HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT IS AS IF I AM ALWAYS FIGHTING A STRONG WIND. IT IS VERY DISTRACTING AND DANGEROUS. SEEMS LIKE ANYTHING OVER 60MPH IS VERY CHALLENGING TO KEEP BETWEEN THE LINES. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ON 2/01/2020 AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS NORMAL FOR THESE SPORTS SUV'S. THEY ALL DO IT. VERY DISCOURAGING. THIS WAS NOTICED ABOUT 10,000 MILES AGO AND SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE. THE CAR HAS 43,000 NOW
