2010 TL SH-AWD pulling to the left

All,

My TL is pulling to the left when driving and i can feel the steering wheel pulsate. I'm guessing ballance and wheel alignment but are there any known issues with the steering mechanism?

Thanks in advance.

Kris

First thing's first, rotate the front tires side to side. Does it pull to the right now? If so, you have a tire with a radial pull. If it still pulls to the left, have the alignment checked next.

Has it just started pulling to the left recently, did you hit any potholes that could have damaged a tire or knocked it out of alignment?

What the first guy said. Could be a number of things. Anything from a bad tire to something to do with the suspension.

If it's not the tire could be a tire rod or ball joint or even inner tie rod (these of which are the most likely)
