Question

Answer
Hello Kevin!

There are a few different things that could cause your problem. The first most common one is, uneven tire wear. This is one of the most common problems with pulling related issues. What tends to happen is either from normal wear and tear or the alignment getting out of spec, the tires wear unevenly which can and will will give you a pull to one side if its happening. Have your tires inspected by a professional, you may want to try rotating the tires using the proper rotation pattern( cross rear tires going to front and front tires straight back to the rear)If tread thickness allows this to be done safely. The other thing you may want to try and I hope whomever did the alignment
did this, but check the air pressures in the tires.
If you have any questions feel free to let me know!!
