    Let me confirm that I got your query correct.

    That you feel that sometimes when you are driving on the road, that your car is not turning in proportion to your steering input?? That the front tyres lack grip??

    If so then I would check your tyres especially the front for tread depth and inflation pressure , as it sounds like you maybe understeering due to lack of front end grip.

        Only at low speeds in carparks?

        Normal. Look up Ackerman angle.

            Thank you, maybe is time to check tyres....i asssume steetlring wheel is electrical but still need fluid. Is possible lack of fluid can makes issue?

              No fluid. It's totally electric.

                  This is what I would have suggested to try first. You will probably be right from now on.

                        If you have had your alignment done at Bob Jane, can I assume that your tyre tread depth is OK??

                        How old are your tyres ( in KMs and age )??

                        What brand are they??

                        Have you discussed your problem with the Bob Jane techs?? Taken them for a test drive??

                          Michelin pilot sport 3. Two year old. Done 35.000 km. Technician told me i am good for another 15.000 km. Wheel aligment done. Front tyres put instead back. Got new tyre feeling. Issue happens intermittently...hard to replicated...

                            Sorry but I have run out of ideas.

                            It still sounds like understeering to me.

                              OP said that it doesn't happen when cornering, which would seem to make understeer unlikely.

                              OP - Is there any pattern you can discern? Does it happen on particular road surfaces? It's not uncommon to get a bit of rubber squeaking when passing over tram tracks, for example.
