I've noticed my CX-9 pulls to the right. On the highway it will eventually drift to the right, usually fairly quickly once I let go of the wheel. From a standstill, it tends to pull hard to the right while accelerating, usually the faster I accelerate the harder it pulls. I can deal with it for the most part but I'm a little confused as to what might be causing this.
I have checked the tire pressure and had a 4 wheel alignment. Neither of those could be a suspect as they're bang on. Now it could be something like a sticky caliper but then I'd experience uneven brake wear and I'm not noticing any pulling while braking. I haven't checked the pads recently, but when I switched to summer tires they all seemed fine.
I hear no bad-bearing noises so I'm pretty sure that's not it.
So that leaves suspension and steering components, right? So maybe my tie rods are worn? Control arms perhaps? CV joint? I'll have to take some time to inspect the car in the next couple of weeks, just wondering what else I should check.
