4th Generation I need help!

I've been noticing this for a moment now, but when I'm on a straught road I let go of the steering wheel and it begins to move to the left, no matter what speed. Also when i have the steering wheel straight and let the car move on its own, the steering tilts to the left a couple of degrees. What can be wrong?

Could be uneven wear? If you can prove to the mechanics that the alignment wasn't done properly, they should give you a new alignment for free.

1 Try to swap the front tires and see if it pulls to the right. If it pulls the the right or go straight that the means the tire is no good. (belts in the tire have moved)
2 Try to move the front tires to the back and see if it gos straight.

3 If it is not the tires then it has to the the alignment.
4 is the front suspention part all good? Make sure the ball joints and tie rods struts and spings are all good..................
