Hi everyone, thanks in advance for your help. I bought my car about a month ago, so I'm not that familiar with it yet. The car pulls to the left when I let go off the steering wheel on the highway or even in the city. I don't know much about cars, but shouldn't it continue to roll straight. My dad said he had this problem in his minivan and he paid $150 to fix it and in 2 weeks the same thing started happening. I had the car inspected by a mechanic 2 weeks ago, and he didn't find anything but this was before I knew about the problem. Still, wouldn't he have seen something or is this a problem that a mechanic won't just catch unless you tell him about it. Any ideas? Thanks

you need an alignment. my local ford charges $69 for a front end alignment. a mechanic usually won't be able to tell if its out of alignment by looking at it.

yup just get alignment checked at a garage.

well if the mechanic didn't see anything, then hopefully it wasn't in a wreck before so an anlignment should fix your prob
