Are we correct,your vehicle is drifting off to the right when attempting to go straight ahead?
If this is correct, I would suggest checking out the followingl
1. Correct tire pressure according to door sticker on driver's side door
2. Need to know what parts were replaced because,,,,,,,,,,,,,, if vehicle hit something like curb, deep pothole, etc., something could be bent and not noticed during a quick alignment.
3. Rear suspension could be out of line and not checked during alignment.
4. Were rear brakes checked for possible frozen wheel cyl(s) or brake cable not completely releasing causing slight drag resulting in pull to one side?
5. Who was doing the alignment ?
6. Did/do the tires show any unusual signs of wear? Were they rotated to see if any change if switched to rear of vehicle?
