Get an alignment.
If that doesnt fix the problem, pull the steering wheel and reinstall it straight.

chances are your alignment is off, time to go and get one.

yeah, this isn't great advice. actually i wouldn't recommend this at all, so don't listen to him!
always do things right the first, half assing it will only cost more time, money, and fustration.
OP, if the alignment doesn't work then i would have some one look at your suspension. make sure there isn't any damaged parts or chassis.
this should be seen though during the alignment. make sure where ever you go, the technician has been at this for years, he will be able to point out exactly what's wrong.

No
Fix the problem don't hide it.
Worn out LCA bushings can cause this problem as well OP.

I ment after he gets the alignment guys.
It could be aligned and tracking straight on the highway but someone installed the wheel crooked. He didn't give us much background info on the car.

After the alignment and it still pulls one way or the other. It might be your tires. (more wear than the other) rotate it left to right if to check. If it pulls the other way, then thats it.
