Acceleration pull. Deceleration pull

I have an 03 maxima 6 speed. When i accelerate it pulls to the left and when i let off the gas it pulls back to the right.

Any ideas?

Check your control arm bushings. May need to install new control arms. Although fixing the problem side may fix the issue, if the other side has an old part also it may be worth doing them both at the same time

If you have a leaking power steering hose, this has caused the bushings in the LCA to rot out and you will get this pulling situation. Replace the power steering hose as well.
