Run as fast as you can from that dealer...

[N.C.O.]

If it is the alignment causing your problem, it would have pull to the left without applying your brakes. If it only happens when it is braking, your right front brake caliper may be sticking on its sliding pins. You may want to have your dealer take a look again, or take it to a different dealer, it should still be under warranty if that is the problem.

I would take it to a different dealer...

thanks for reply's. i thought brakes are a wear/tear item not covered by warranty?? i buy Citgo gas [plus] could that be why they said i need 'throttle body work'

any idea, if in fact i needed 'throttle body'work [whatever that is] why my throttle bodies are going bad?? last winter the car was racing on startup and would only inch out in drive. i thought i was on ice,not the case, after 5 minutes was ok again??
