After getting my car aligned it pulls to the left when on the gas and to the right when on the brakes - also steering is off the the left a bit when driving straight.
Any ideas? thanks |

check to make sure the power steering rack is mounted tightly and that the rubber mounts are in good shape.

Not sure about the pulling to the left, perhaps take it back to the alignment place and complain, they should help you out, and the wheel to the left means that they did not center it correctly when they did the alignment, so they are pretty much responsible for both of those i should think
The braking pull, could be a stuck caliper or the hydraulic pressure is screwy, check the brake fluid, make sure brake lines aren't kinked, make sure the brake pads on both the left and right side are the same thickness! if one side is thicker, the side that grabs first is the direction the car will pull. -------------------- ◊◊◊ My F/S Thread! ◊◊◊

There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out.

First things first, make sure your tire pressures are ok and your tires aren't worn unevenly. If that's all ok then move on
Like mentioned above, the pulling when braking could be a sticking caliper or something strange with the brakes. Pulling one way or the other on acceleration, to a certain extent, is normal. -------------------- |
