I've also seen this on one of my trucks a few years ago.....the right caliper was slightly sticking when the brakes were released causing it to heat up slightly. Of course when brakes heat up they are less effective. So because my right caliper was sticking and heating up slightly...it caused a pull to the left when i applied the brakes as the left brake pads were cooler and more effective.
I am dropping the truck off on Thursday after work for a diagnosis, I can't see throwing anymore money at the truck without knowing now, everything in the front end has been replaced so I'm sure it's down to a master cylinder/ equalizing valve or a line somewhere to the master cylinder but need to know for certain. Will inform when I find out.

Same thing happened to me and later resulting with the brake locking up. And a pretty $$ repair
I have not yet, been very busy with work. I dont know if they will honor it because my truck does have a 2.5" level kit on it.

Keep us posted on how things go at the dealership, folks. Modifications won't necessarily void your warranty; the service manager will be in the best position to advise on that. If you need assistance after getting a diagnosis, just let me know.
