What to do now?

Dealer still hasn't fixed my truck. I was told today (after I went to see them since no one wanted to talk to me) that they have problem. The tech who took a ride with me and drove my truck says it is out of alignment. Their machine says it isn't.

Perhaps there is a problem with your tires? I had the same issue with my '98 Explorer. Kept pulling and pulling even when it was aligned.

Turned out to be the big defective Firestone tire issue, but they never told me that at the time.

Fortunately for me they never fell apart and killed me. They recalled them when I had 50,000 miles on them. Got brand spankin' new ones for free.

I never paid for a tire on that vehicle.

Try rotating the tires first and see if that makes any difference.

Rotate may take away pull but tire will still wear prematurely. Take dealer specs to tire dealer and confront them on this issue. It's bad that we have to do that since i believe auto dealer should back all products on the truck as for warranty . You know and let them deal with the tire companies. Right.
