First inspect your tires & check air pressure. If it only pulls when you apply the brakes, the problem is most likely brakes.
If it pulls all the time it most likely needs an alignment. Do yourself and the alignment tech a favor & make sure you have decent tires on it before you take it to the shop.

Tires and such are an exceedingly good position to look as were lined in solutions already. yet another position to look is to make effective that there isn't any longer dried "restore a flat" interior between the tires. That stuff dries up after awhile and heavily throws a tire out of stability. Will shake the vehicle merely about to products if there is adequate in there. once you've under no circumstances used it then a previous proprietor would have finished so. We had a Galant that turned right into a nightmare to rigidity round 60 for merely this reason. typically even as tires are somewhat out of stability 40 5 or so is the speed that it shows up, with the restore-a-flat even with the truth that turned right into a lot worse at larger speeds and made making use of abode a difficulty for some weeks earlier the worry became discovered. had to take the tire off the rim and the dried movie became piled up on one part and honestly bumped off, yet under no circumstances knew it became there from the outdoors. If each and every individual makes use of this stuff for an emergency ought to recommend cleansing it out later even as the tire is repaired, or if the tire is replaced have the rim wiped clean on the in the tire area. stunning how a lot this can throw the soundness off. except that many of the different thoughts are tremendous places to look. the actual shown truth that this takes position at extreme % looks to rule out significant engine or transmission issues to me so should not be a foul restoration no count what the project is.good success both way.

The wheel with the dragging brake would be a lot hotter than the others.
Alignment doesn't just get off by itself. Something has to be worn out or you hit a curb.
One thing that causes a car to pull is separating belts in a tire. You can check that by swapping the wheels from right to left and seeing if it pulls the other way.

Usually it is in need of alignment. You might also need to replace some parts like the tie-rod end or steering knuckle. Most tire shops will do a free alignment check. They will tell you what they find.

Firstly, Check your tyre pressures. Have you hit the curb lately as this can throw out the alignment. Wheel balance only deals with high speed vibrations.
More than likely it will be an alighnment issue.

It needs a wheel alignment on the front and back.

Cross-rotate the front tires.
99.999% of all "pulls" are caused by the tires, not by the alignment.
