OK so i know it sounds stupid at this point, after having my car for so long and not doing anything about it yet i do but not more, make sense? so when i bought my car at the dealer, they give the customers their first oil change/rotation free so thats when i came in n got it done n after that i started to notice that my car starts to steer to the right and at some point i look at my steering wheel n its off angled to the right n when i told them they said they'll give me an alignment free cause its under "Warranty" but same thing..i took it to NTB (Nation Tire and Battery) cause i have a 5 yr warranty there for alignment n rotation, told them whats going on, they "fixed" it but it STILL does it......so im thinking...could it be that i need to balance my tires? but i thoguht balancing is onli when ur car starts to shake n mine doesnt soo...what should i do? im planning on telling them that my steering wheel is offset so they can fix it, u think that'll do the trick or theres more?

Take the car back to the dealer, don't mention that NTB worked on it too, and see if they can fix it, which might include changing out the tires for a different set.

You may have defective tires. Bad tires are known for creating the problem you are describing. If I was you, I will take to the dealership and let them figure out what's wrong with your car. Good luck

Is this at a launch or normal driving? Solaras pull to the left... its torque steer... and you can't really help it.... with the engine being strong as it is
I just took mine to the dealer b/c it was pulling to the right & the steering wheel was off at about 11o'clock. They did the wheel alignment at no charge but they charged me for rotating & the re-balancing of the tires,only b/c I have aftermarket wheels.

I'm having the exact same problem. Did the alignment fix the problem for you? My dealer did an alignment on mine and it did not fix the problem. They keep saying it "normal' for this car to follow the road crown.
Yes it did,car drives straight as an arrow & the steering wheel is centered properly as well.Even when the roads curvature leans left or right the steering is effortless.

I guess not all dealers are equally competent. Did your dealer provide you with alignment spec print out after the alignment? If so, can you share it with me? Did they use 07 Camry alignment specs from Toyota?
Mine used 20-06 Camry V6 alignment specs from Toyota even though mine is 07 Camry. It is so frustrating dealing with this problem. My dealer keeps giving me that it is "normal" BS.
your caliper may be starting tio seize up,or they adjusted your air pressure and have too much on one side but when they did the alignment they should have seen this,is your car doing this on all roads it may just be the road,but try seeing if one of your brakes in front get hotter then the other if so replace the caliper,
