my yaris pulls to the right. i went and had the alignment done at one of dallas' best alignment shops. it seemed like the problem was fixed for awhile but just recently it has been pulling to the right again. may need to take it in for this TSB.

i worked at sport city toyota in dallas.. many times the tires will be the issue of pull in the dfw area.. might as well. also most yaris owners complained of the steering wheel being off center more then pull

i just had my wheels rotated, all are inflated at the same pressure (32psi) and it still pulls to the right. i kind of thought it might have been that until after i got my wheels rotated the other day. i really do think it is an issue with the car and not the tires/wheels.

I have a 4 door Yaris and my steering wheel is off center too (or at least it was until I ranted and raved at my dealer and then he put it up on an alignment rack and attempted to fix it for me).

Is this TSB for the "off center" steering? What's the cause of the steering being off-center?

My yaris tracks straight, always has, never pulled either. The only oddity that ive noticed in the front end is when I pulled off the stock wheels / tires. Even after two tire rotations the front drivers side tire is worn something horrible compared to the the other three. Im usually the only person in the car so maybe this is a weight distribution issue?
Ive always kept a close eye on tire pressure etc since Ive had a lot of problems with other cars in the past which wouldnt hold air.
Anyway, maybe a bit off topic.
