Is the tire low again? Just a shot in the dark since it seemed to take care of the problem for a few days.

Try switching the two front tires around and see if the pull goes to the other side. My guess is your tires are causing this pull.

I was thinking the same, but usually radial tire pulls are there from day 1 when the tire is made.

swapped the tires around. then from front to back.. same pull to the right.
I understand that it's the toe since the car does not pull by itself to the right unless I hold the steering wheel straight.

I do know that stock it does not come with adjustable camber bolts.
It's really getting on my nerves though. Because usually when I pay for something to get fixed I expect it to get fixed, not be given the " we did all we could " speech.

Thanks for all the help guys.. I'm taking all this info down and will keep everyone posted just in case this comes up again and someone else has questions.

UPDATE..

Ok, so the dealership did another allignment bu the steering wheel was still off center..
Took it back and they straightned the steering wheel up and redid the allignment. It was the toe, but the main issue was the steering wheel was off center. Problem fixed..
Now it's time for new wheels and tires..
