Welp, the first thing I would do is check the tires pressures.

Next, I would rotate the wheels, front to back.

While I had the wheels off, I would inspect the brakes for a dragging pad and see if I had a lose caliper.

Also, check for a lose wheel bearing.

If none of that fixed it, I would have the alignment checked.

All that is ....... what I would really do, is take it up to my local auto shop and have them find and fix it .......... while I went next door and had a burger.......
