Took my car to Tire Kingdom twice, two diffrent Tire Kingdoms at that, and both tell me my alignment is perfect. Did a car faq on my Maxima,it never was in any accident, i am the first owner.Just brought brand new tires two weeks ago too....
The tech told me that newer cars from 2k1 on up pull to the right or left as a saftey percaution just incase the driver falls asleep at the wheel.Sounds like BS to me, but may be true , i don't know...

I only notice the pull from 50 mph less, highway speeds the car tracks strait as an arrow. Do any of you have the same problem?

 

I just got my car aligned and they said it was perfect.....mine pulls to the left a little, but on the highway its fine. Also, when I brake it kinda pulls to the left on uneven roads.

 

maybe radial steer. switch the front tires from one side to the other.

Just make sure when you are backing up its not pulling anywhere but straight.

 

Check your tire pressure, i've got a nail on my front passenger tire and when the air goes low the car pulls to the right. When i fill it back up the car is straight. Even before i got the nail i noticed the car would steer better when both the tires were to the same pressure.

 

since the mid fifties or so when the interstate system was first devised, they began aligning cars to stay straight on the left lane of the highway, which also happens to have a steep bank often, but they figured it's ok because people spend most time there........or so they thought at the time, however a side effect of this, which they saw positively is that when someone passes out they drift off the road away from traffic. So basically noone will change the alignment setting unless you previously request a non-stock setting, because they set it to specifications they have in their online catalog/manuals, those same ones that pro-rate labour so you pay 3hrs for something that took 1 hour.

 

usually it would pull a little to the right, due to most states making the roads higher in the middle and lower on the sides to help move water to the gutter/sidewalk to prevent flooding/ hydroplaning... maybe thats why...

 

Thanks guys for your input.I am going to check my tire pressure first , if thats not the problem then i will live with the other awnsers that most of you have said and agreed on, that the road may be crowned. Since Fl is known for its torrential rainstorms , i have a feeling these roads are constructed to be that way. Thanks again....

 

All my cars have had a natural tendency to go to the right, esp at lower speeds.

What I do now is put 1/2 lb more of air in the right sided (passanger side) tires, which makes the effect less noticable.

 

Here's a test for you:
If your alignment is fine, the car will pull slightly to the right when you are on the gas (proportionally more the more on the gas you are). Find a flat road (one without a "crown" i.e. the high part in the middle) . Then coast. While coasting, the car should track straight...when you give it some gas, it will start pulling right again....radial pull....

 

+1 on the crown, pulls to the right no matter what unless you're on a nice road

 

Hmmm..... mine pulls to the left mostly...

VA roads maybe?

 

I got my alignment done at TK too, and it pulls to the right sightly.

 

Mine also pulls to the left mostly, I dont' actually recall it pulling to the right.

 

my car also pull to the right a little on lower speeds...i had my alignment done a week ago and was wondering should i go back to have they check it out or not...
