Stratus Sedan V6-2.7L VIN R (2002)
Thrust angle is the averaged direction the rear wheels are pointing in relation to the vehicle's center line. The presence of negative or positive thrust
angle causes the rear tires to track improperly to the left or right of the front tires (dog tracking).
^
Negative thrust angle means the rear tires are tracking to the left of the front tires.
^
Positive thrust angle means the rear tires are tracking to the right of the front tires.
Improper tracking can cause undue tire wear, a lead or pull and a crooked steering wheel. Excessive thrust angle can usually be corrected by adjusting
the rear wheel toe so that each wheel has one-half of the total toe measurement.
