I have had my magnum since last April. It's been in for alignment 4 times. they say "The Magnum is very crown sensitive" and we can do anything but align per specs. What have you guys done to get this fixed?

Welcome.....two words.........'CRADLE SHIFT" Many earlier models required this correction. There is a post on here about it.

Don't they all pull to the right?
I don't have a fix for you but welcome to the forum.
Before and After
The ones that do pull, pull to the right. In worse case situations, a cradle shift is required. The dealer will do this after checking alignment, if it still pulls. The biggest problem as I see it, is the lousy tires that are OEM. Continentals are the worse, but Goodyear Integrity tires are only slightly better. On the 17", I feel the walls are too soft which causes the car to "wander". I changed to 18" R/T wheels and Goodyear Assurance tires...problem gone and handling vastly improved!

The last time I refused a beer I didn't understand the question.
All the LX models are crown sensitive. When I switched my 300C to GY Assurance tires, most of the crown sensitivaty but not all went away. There is a TBS for the right hand pull that is in common with most of the LX models. My 300C had it bad until the dealer did the TSB fix. This is the only problem I found with my 300.
