If you’ve noticed your car pulling to the right while driving, it’s more than just an annoyance—it’s often a sign that something needs attention. At Joe’s Slinger Service, we frequently see this issue in vehicles from across Washington County WI and surrounding areas. Here are some of the most common causes:
1. Wheel Alignment Problems
When your wheels aren’t aligned properly, your vehicle will tend to drift to one side. Wisconsin’s rough roads and potholes make this a frequent issue for local drivers.
2. Uneven Tire Pressure
Low air pressure in one of your tires—especially on the driver’s side—can cause a pull. Even a small PSI difference can make a big impact on handling.
3. Sticking Brake Calipers
If one of your brake calipers is sticking, it can cause uneven braking, which may lead to a pull while driving or braking.
4. Worn or Mismatched Tires
Uneven tread wear, mismatched tire brands, or old tires can cause your car to track off-center.
5. Suspension Wear
Damaged or worn suspension parts, such as control arms or bushings, can affect your steering and cause drifting.
What Should You Do?
If your car is pulling to the right, it’s best to have it checked before it leads to more serious wear—or even a safety issue. Our ASE-certified techs at Joe’s Slinger Service can perform a complete inspection, including alignment checks, tire pressure, brakes, and suspension components.
We’re proud to serve drivers in Washington County, and surrounding areas with honest, high-quality auto repair and diagnostics.
