[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks PPs. I can tell it's pulling to the right and I noticed immediately after the hard stop incident. I've been driving for 40+ years and never experienced something like this. [/quote] The first PP is correct. There may have been a loose bolt somewhere. It could also be a brake that is jammed and dragging a bit. That would make the car pull.[/quote] That is an interesting theory that a brake got jammed. You can test it by driving around 10-20 minutes and then checking (very carefully) if one of the wheels is much hotter than the others. Also I would visually inspect the wheels to see if any is tilted more than others, which would indicate bad alignment. Another guess in that a wheel hub was probably on its last legs and the hard braking finished it. That might also contribute to pulling. Grab top and bottom of a wheel and shake it. If you feel some slack or hear clicking that might indicate a bad hub. [/quote]
