I've had this car three years now , and it wasn't doing this when I bought it . I'll get to the bottom of this soon , but this is a re-run of last year . I fought with repairs all the way up until we had to leave for vacation . I wish I could just catch a break .

I agree, jack up spin the wheel and feel for drag, if it was sticking the car would pull to the other direction. Ive had people ride the brake a little and burn up pads in a few thousand miles.Im a retired 40 year mech, have been sending my own car out for work
