Default Car is pulling hard left!!!

Ok I've searching and reading about what could be wrong and I'm thinking my caliper may be to blame.
I just recently replaced my pads and rotors all the way around and now my car pulls really hard to the left.
Could it be my caliper not going back to its original position after braking?
If so how would I fix that?
Any help would be great.

alignment might be in order.

it maybe caused by excessive heat on the caliper, you might need to replace caliper, because the piston might not be retracting. it might just be alignment problem.

does it pull to the left only under braking?

my car did that because one of my tires was hella bald on one side, all the way down to the cords.

It does it all the time not just when I'm braking.
I'm gonna move my front tires to the backs and see if that works because my fronts have alot more wear on them.
Is there a way I can tell if my caliper isn't retracting all the way back in?
