Default U turns

Just wondering if any other eclipse owners can make a proper u turn. My car 2nd gen gsx and friends car 2nd gen gst both can't make U turns. We require like 2 and a half lanes just to do it without reversing. Its always been like this. My friend has had 2 eclipse so far and both dont do you turn well. So starting to think if its just an eclipse thing or our cars r wack. lol

Yah kinda figured since every other car i drove had a better turning radius. Didn't know it was flawed like that from the start though. i just avoid you turning most of the time and parking. I let other ppl drive my car and have them park and every time they can't do it in one shot. Always reversing and readjusting lol..
