I got into an accident about a month ago, front end. I finally have her back together and I've noticed that whenever I let go of the steering wheel, the car pulls toward the right, pretty hard IMO. I kinda have to hold the wheel slightly to the left to keep it straight. My first thoughts were to check the alignment, I find that the drivers side is way off, so I have it fixed. It's still doing it. Does anyone have any ideas on what else I should check? I'm praying I don't have frame damage. Impact was about 7-10mph, not a bad accident at all. Anyways thanks for the help.

have the alignment checked again.

does the steering wheel sit normal like it used to? or is it off when you`re going straight?

 

hmm, tough to say, I think it feels a little off....

 

alignment can still be off even if the wheel is straight.

just go get an alignment, not a hard problem to solve.

 

well, the problem is that I just got one a few days ago and the problem persists, I guess I should take it back and make them check it again?

 

It may be a seperated belt in the tire. Switch the front tires side to side. If it pullls the other direction then its deffinately the tire.

you might wanna take it back, just to make sure.

Also get them to check the tires like stated above.

And look up under the car while its on the alignment machine to see if anything suspension wise looks odd.

I was going to say the same thing. Both me and a friend have the same problem, but if you switch the tires it pulls the other way.
