Car Pulling to One Side?
It’s more than just a nuisance – it’s a safety risk.
Whether your car drifts during a straightaway or yanks the wheel when you hit the brakes, “pulling” indicates a breakdown in your vehicle’s alignment, braking, or suspension system. At Greer’s, we straighten out the problem so you can drive with confidence.
What Causes a Car to Pull?
- Wheel Misalignment: The most common culprit; your wheels aren’t pointing in the same direction.
- Uneven Tire Pressure: Low air in one tire creates more rolling resistance, causing a drift.
- Brake Caliper Issues: A “stuck” caliper can apply constant pressure to one wheel.
- Worn Suspension Parts: Damaged tie rods or ball joints can shift your steering geometry.
What We Do at Greer’s
Comprehensive Alignment Check: We use precision sensors to measure your vehicle's camber, caster, and toe.
Tire & Pressure Inspection: We check for "conical" tire wear and ensure PSI is balanced.
Brake System Audit: We ensure your calipers and pads are releasing evenly.
Suspension Stress Test: We inspect links and bushings for play that causes drifting.
