Alignment problem

My car was seriously pulling to the right when i was driving...so i just had an alignment done, i just picked up the car and the car is still pulling to the right. Is there anything else that could be making the car veer to the right? the alignment is guaranteed so im probably just going to take it back tomorrow and tell them to do it again, but i was just wondering if there was anything else that would be making the car pull or do you think they just did it wrong, cause the guy told me when i picked it up that they showed it pulling to the left.

then take it back and have them redo it. they shouldn't have problems with stock suspension.

Sometimes the pulling could be related to the condition of your tires..Do they all have the same tread pattern?.

rotate your tires.. that MAY be the problem..

if not check the strut spindle bolts to make sure they are tight.. i had the same problem but WAY worse, buts thats cause i used generic peace of crap camber bolts..

Take it back and have it redone. Also be sure and get a printout of your specs when it's done.
