Just purchases a 2011 RT and find that the front end is a bit "fishy" while making right hand turns and slight pulling to the right when going straight. The dealer hasn't heard of this before. Any suggestions? Thanks!

By the way, the alignment tool is due in the local shops early this week.

Pulling to one side is often a result of the steering sensors not being zeroed. If the steering angle sensor and the steering torque sensor do not match, the DPS will try to steer itself. Have you dealer center the steering, hook to BUDS, and reset the sensors. If that doesn't help, it may be toed out a bit, and will need the alignment checked.

Scotty gave me this same advice and it fixed mine. Was just like yours. As it turns out the steering sensors were a couple of degrees off.
