Car Pulls to the Right or Left

Symptoms: pulling to one side or poor steering

Diagnostic: poor alignment

Proper alignment is necessary for both even treadwear and precise steering. You need an alignment when you notice:

  • Uneven front or rear tire wear

  • Changes in your vehicle's handling or steering response (e.g., pulling to one side)

Solution:

Many vehicles today are equipped with rear suspensions that can be adjusted for alignment. If this is the case, your vehicle may need a "front end" alignment or a "four wheel" alignment, depending on the symptoms you are experiencing. See your local Michelin authorized tire dealer for an inspection.
