Wheel alignment of new G35 sedan

My two weeks old car seems to have a wheel alignment problem. It tends to favor the left at most lanes on freeway. I know that freeway lanes tend to have a angle either to the left of to the right and it would affect the direction of the car. But mine tends to veer to the left on most lanes.

Is this a common problem?

I wouldn't say it's common but get the dealer to re-align it for you becasue it definitely shouldn't be like that.

More common than many realize.

Your car has been jerked arround, loaded & chained down several times between the factory door & the dealership.

It's one the first things I get done with every new car.
They are often within (total) spec;
but I have never had one that was right.

alignment may be out of spec... get 4 wheel alignment done asap...

mine was tracking straight out of the dealer until i put 350z springs and tokico d-specs in and the car steered left unless i held the steering wheel at 5minutes on the clock to maintain straigtline crusing on flat interstate highway...

after alignment (not nearly as optimum as one could get but good enough to not wear things down too fast.... tolerances are built-in since you can't have perfect alignment.... factory suspension components don't allow much corrections anyway) car drove straight like factory new...
