"severe" ... usenet ... relative
Any pull in the steering is severe enough to warrant some concern.
What's your interest in Fords, or you're just another ricer with an attitude?
Forget the euphemisms, all you get is an emphatic "FUM"

Would this cause the car to pull to the left? Don't know I never tried it, it was a s-u-g-g-e-s-t-i-o-n, so blow me.

You make me laugh because you think you have a clue.

I've had low tires pull the steering one way, only in need of about 10 lbs of pressure, and were not flat on the rim as you suggest. And how "severe" is severe on usenet anyway?
So go ahead and replace everything before ruling out the obvious, if that's how you fix stuff. Seems like the original poster already did that and no joy.
Hey, you don't like my advice? Too bad, it's free.

>Why, because tire pressure has no impact on a car pulling to one side >when braking? It would have to be flat on the rim to react as he described. The word severe was used several times.
>And your advice would be? Check the position of the power seats. If they are fine, I would make sure the rear defroster is not on. Possibly check the washer fluid level as well.
I know this makes sense to you, at least.

Why, because tire pressure has no impact on a car pulling to one side when braking?
And your advice would be?

>Check the air pressure in the tires obviously if you haven't already. That advice is as good as telling him to make sure the radio isn't on.

Check the air pressure in the tires obviously if you haven't already. How about the brakes being bled? Is it possible you have air in one of the lines?

car pulls hard left. I have had it back to the shop 4 times. New pads, new caliphers, new rotors, new seals, repack bearings, new wheel seals, cleaned and adjusted rear brakes. Car can be driven a few miles and it will not pull. All of a sudden when braking, it will pull. If I slam on brakes it doesn't seem to pull. When I brake normally, i.e., traffic light, stop sign, etc., it then pulls severely. Anybody have any suggestions? Thank you.
