Slightly pulling to the right

My CL is pulling ever so slightly to the right as if there some minor misalignment. The local Acura service advisor told me to give it sometime for the car to settle to see if the straighten by itself. That was 700 miles ago and it's still pulling. Has anyone experienced the similar problem?

This the case when you bought it?
If so, make em fix it! Maybe someone knocked it off alignment during a test drive...ouch

I experienced the pull the very next day on a freeway going at about 70 mph. It only had 12 miles when I got it. Heck anything can happen in 12 miles or is it just minor factory defect? Anyway I'll be taking it back & have it straighten up, cross my finger hope they'll fix it right the first time.

cars can settle, i have 2300 miles on mine and it doesn't really pull but the right front is starting to feather the outside of the tread, so they are going to line it up today for me i suggest you have them line yours up also

Sounds like alignment issues. You see at purchase I also had a slight pull to the right. Very very annoying on highways. But soon after I had park ave install my sways/springs and jens aligned the car.
After the alignment the car never again pulled and tracked true straight.
