okay i just got my alignment done...but my car still goes to the left when i drive straight... any idea what the problem can be?

 

Did they center your steering wheel? That is odd.

When you let go of the wheel, does it pull left? Or do you mean when you hold the wheel straight, it goes left.


EDIT: and try it on various roads... a road that is slanted to one side or another will keep your car from tracking in a straight line. Try a parking lot, see if it still pulls.

 

it drifts to the left when the wheel is straight... but sometimes i gotta keep the wheel to the right a bit to keep it straight...and when i go from 60-80ish miles my car gets rough and vibrates a bit...i hope my axel isnt gone

the car seems to get bad at 30+ miles an hour..

 

Just because they did an alignment doesn't mean that they did the alignment correctly.

The shaking is worrisome. Any grinding? Could be anything from severely worn tires, out of balance wheel or tie rods that are about to fall apart.

 

might be balancing... tires arent worn out.. they were fine but this whole going to the left thing started to screw them up a bit..
no grinding.. shaking is that bad.. sorta feels like there isnt enough air in one tire.. but there is enough.

 

Yeah I'd take it back to them. Alignment shops should center your steering wheel... so when the wheel is straight, the car should go straight.

Where exactly did you take it? Some crap place? Go fight them!

 

sears auto center.. only reason i took it there was cuz my dads friend works there and it cost $10..lol

 

well i went back to sears today.. they switched the front two tires and now instead of the car going to the left it goes right.. which means its the tire right? if so should i replace it with the same tire as the other three or use another one. because the spare tire i have is a firestone tire and the rest are cooper tires..

 

Brand doesn't matter as much as the amount of tread left. You can use the firestone with your coopers if you get it shaved to match the others.

 

oh alright.. thanks alot bro
