Finally...Brake Pull is FIXED
Alright Guys and Gals,
Here is the actual definition of my problem and fix. When I hit the brake pedal, I would have a hard pull to the left. I had the rotors, brake hoses, pads replaced and rotors turned down. That was last year. This year, the brake pull came back so I replaced pads all the way around with ceramics, checked all calipers for sticking or hanging up. Still had a pull. Turns out, after my alignment, the pull is gone. The alignment shop also replaced my steering stabilizer. I also had the rear disc rotors turned. When the shop heated the rotors up and then checked their temp with a heat gun, the two front rotors were withing a few degrees of each other. The left rear rotor was 50 degrees hotter than the right so I had them turned. As far as I can tell, the problem is fixed. Hope this info helps some of you out there dealing with a brake pull.

Really? Mine did too. In fact, it changed with the weather. Hot weather in summer = no brake pull, cold weather = brake pull. Now though, it's still cold and we fixed her. Ill cross my fingers that it doesnt come back.
