Anyone's brakes occasionally pulling left or right

Anyone's brakes occasionally pulling left or right
Since new, my car has on rare occasion, pulled either left or right when hitting the brakes. It is not always, and it it is not just left and not just right. Does anyone else have this issue? I hope it is just air in the brake line and a bleed can clear this up.
As a future mod, I intend to do stainless braided hoses and Hawk high performance ceramic pads but before I did I wanted to hear from others. Also I am doing these brake mods to try and upgrade the stock setup without spending an arm and a leg on six piston calipers, Nascar driiled/slotted rotors and gawd knows what else. It mostly a fast weekend warrior car, not an SCCA track car.
Thanks for the input guys.

RE: Anyone's brakes occasionally pulling left or right
If it does it both ways and randomly, what kind of road surface is it doing it on? I get a tug one way or the other sometimes when braking on a grooved up road. It's not the brakes at all, it's just tramlining. I don't know enough about suspensions to know how to fix it, so I ignore it.

Along the lines of what he said, does it ever do it on smooth pavement on a hard stop? Or only on badly grooved roads? If it's only on bad grooves I wouldn't stress, especially if your suspension seems otherwise tight. But worn suspension components can be a cause too, allowing the suspension to shift a bit under hard braking in some conditions. So it wouln't hurt to check that also -

Ever since I replaced the 235's with 275'smy Stang tracks like that, braking or just cruising, when the road surface is grooved. On a nice fresh blacktop it tracks fine. So... what THEY said.
