Car jerks to the left or right

So i bought and have played need for speed from day 1 and ive noticed that randomly my car will turn to the left or right mostly after a turn or drift and i cannot go any further in the story line because my vehicle will drive straight into a wall and be destroyed and then putting me in last place. Is there anyway i can fix this, like i changed my cars tuning multiple times and it still does the same thing.

    Thank you for adding the video's here. I would like to keep the discussion in this topic so I will just remove your other post.

    As for the issue, we are looking into this. If you can, make sure you try another controller as well. The handling in this game is very sensitive and we have seen reports of users having faulty controllers (a dull or loose stick is enough) leading to such issues.

    I have same problem, car is pulling to right

  • The issue is still not fixed, same as with NFS Payback.

    feels like I'm playing Burnout with the handling of GTA

    Come on guys, even free to play racing games get their handling good. 

    Get rid of that crappy handling that no one asks for.

  • This crappy thing happens mainly because the game has a freaking lag input, and the wheels just response too slow to your input. If you turn right, the wheels go REAL SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOW to the right. If you then turn to the left, first, wheels will SLOOOOOOOOWWWWWLY RECENTER, then SLOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWLY turn to the left. It is like if it was a slow cam move. Don't know why Ghost Games didn't decide to take care of this crappy slowness. I suppose the reason of this slow response is that the game expects you to play with burnout style of playing, and so, they are adapted for a arcade-like game where you don't need that much control over the wheels but over the general direction of the car, and you only need to turn left or right and the game does all the rest for you. For those who actually want to grip, this is a * * because game will behave on his own and take forever to put our inputs in.

    Using keyboard or a 360 controller this problem still persists, regaurdless of vehicle used. It's most noticable and deadly at high speeds. Get up to 200 plus MPH and not even touching the steering it will randomly just * you into a rail or car and your dead. What a damn waste too, ive yet to find a suitable "new" racing game still.

  • I have this same problem with the abandoned game nfs prostreet, sometimes my car goes slightly either left or right, but I'm able to control it, as well as at speed sometimes (namely 3-400km/h), I would like to by this game (I've downloaded the abandonware version of the game), but, I request EA to look into bringing back NFS Prostreet in a re-mastered version

  • I have the same problem in Need for speed most wanted. Hard to drive let along be able to do police pursuits. Is there any update from EA about why this is happening and when they are going to fix it. I use the keyboard of  a steering wheel and both the same thing my cars veer off to the left when i try driving straight running me into walls or off a cliff to nothingness. so just wondering

  • It was first reported in 2015, and Need For Speed Unbound was never fixed either so I'm going to assume the 100% don't care. I'm learning my lesson and not buying NFS games anymore.
