'Gathering' fabric on Bernina?

My Bernina Aurora 440QE is 'gathering' the fabric when I use straight stitch. Thinking it is a tension problem I have tried all ways to deal with this, but the gathering still occurs.

Hello Evelyn,
There may be too much pressure on the presser foot or you could be sewing on a thin fabric, or you could have a burr on the end of the needle.
