Yes, also, an improper alignment or bent suspension component can as well. BTW, mine pulls to the right when I center the wheel. Everything on my car checks out A-ok, so I am just gonna have the steering wheel centered. I hope that works.

Warped rotors will cause it to pull to one side when stopping, depending on if just one or both of the rotors are warped. I am not arguing with you, just stating this from personal experience. I did this on my 95 SE 5-speed before it was totaled by a Navigator.Originally posted by iwannabmw

OK, I've never experienced that before, I've always warped both front rotors at the same time. NEVER leave your foot on the brakes after a sudden stop, the pads act as a heat sink and cool that one spot on the rotor faster than the rest. Oops.Originally posted by Ramius83

Your only "masking" a problem. If your car's steering wheel isn't centered after a 4 wheel thrust alignment, something is still out of wack.
Either the shop's equipment is off or you have a tire problem.
