Car Pulls to the Right

I just bought my TL-S on Friday and it is pulling to the right. I checked my tire pressure and all four were at 40psi. I lowered them all to 32psi but that didn't fix the problem. Anybody else experience this problem. Do I need an allignment already!?!?

Please help!

Thanks

Take it to any tire alignment place...like Firestone or whatever and get it aligned. Your car can be knocked out of alignment by just hitting a pothole. Buy the lifetime one. IT's worth it.

Bring it back to the dealership and get them to align all the wheels for free!

Just like the lifetime oil changes ? My dad bought that from Winston Tires but they 'bought it back' and paid my dad 100 bucks because they were losing money on it...

I didn't know anyone offered lifetime alignments. The best they can do here is 6 months or 6 thousand miles.

Maybe because there are too many potholed roads out there in MA?? j/k...

Firestone (at least the stores out here in CA) offer them, but then again, it's Firestone; they didn't know how to correctly do a front end alignment on my Tahoe. The knock-outs need to be removed (I believe they are put in place to prevent front-end/steering rack damage during transport) in order to correctly do the alignment; something that any Chevy dealer knows about, and for good reason--the cost to remove them is just as much--if not more--than the alignment itself.

As long as the dealer sees no visual damage to any of your tires/rims, they will do your alignment for free.
