hey everyone....I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas about what's goin' on with my car. From when the car starts moving up until I get to about 40MPH, the steering wheel jerks to the right..somewhat like a shimmy, but pulls to the right. Above 40, the car pulls really hard to the right and there is a lot of vibration. I had the tires checked and rebalanced, but it still does it. It seems to be getting worse, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Can't be certain from afar, but did you consider a seized right caliper and warped rotor?
