Steering

I just got a zip zap and it does not drive straight even with the thing on the bottom put all the way to one side. How can i fix this problem? I tried putting in rare earth magnets in to fix it, but it didn't seem to help. Thanks for any help.

If one front wheel is spinning faster then the other one, it'll get pulled toward the slower one's side. You may want to check the front tires for hair, thread, or gunk. Lift up the car and give them a spin. If that's not the problem, your steering spring is off a tad.

They're really good about returns. I'd take it back. It's probably fixable, but why bother?

Yeah. If i tried to take it back they probably won't have any left. It is not that big of a problem, so oh well.
