Car Pulls Left

cruncherjf1 · 05-11-2008, 06:44 PM

hi guys, my 07 si sedan has been pulling left when I hit the gas. I recently put air in the tires would uneven tire pressure cause this or is it something else. thanks

Uneven tire pressure, Alignment. One or the other...or maybe both.

idk.... i just put my stockies back on yesterday after they got painted and my car is doing the same thing... i just got an alignment and the car wasnt pulling until i put my wheels back on. i checked the air in all 4 tires and its equal. i just got an alignment like i said. so i took the wheels back off and put them on again, i figured maybe i accidentally put it on crooked, but it still pulls left when i hit the gas and when i let off it straightens back out....

so i feel ur pain op...

Switch the front and rear tires and see if it goes away.

Mine pulls off to the right and my tire pressure is all the same. How many PSI are you guys putting in yours?

But I just recently rotated my tires and it started to pull to the right, when I first got the car it did that too, then I rotated the tires and all was well. So I know it has something to do with the tires I have in front now. Must be misaligned slightly, any other thoughts?

mine does that too goes to left when i hit gas . i got 07 si coupe

Hrm that weird....check your alignment. I would guess the car is dog tracking due to the thrust angle of the car.

check the tire pressure and also check the tread depth on the front two tires.if one tire is worn more than the other it will pull. our cars are very sensitive with the lsd. i had the same problem

alot of front wheel drive have the pulling, it's torque steering and it has something to do with the uneven lengths of the driveshaft.

Try rotating the tires around. It happens. This will most likely get rid of the problem.
