Default Car pulls left

Car pulls left very hard under hard acceleration and braking. Any thoughts as to why?

Default alignment (possible), Tire Pressure, check the calipers up front

either one is sticking, or the other pad very low.

It could always be the road too.

Default I had the same problem before... alignment after tie-rod end change fixed that [more]

I don't think it's the tie-rods, most likely it is your alignment.
