Sounds odd, but i would take the vehicle back and have them check for worn steering parts.. or a bad tire in front.

often when I get done mudding I have this. There is mudd caked on to my right front tire knocking it out of balance. This causes the offset which causes the pulsation which causes the pulling to right:) Go get a car wash:)

While the tires are being checked look at the brake caliper on the right side. It could be dragging (piston sticking) or a brake pad could have come loose.

You know what, that might just be it handi2, just 2 weeks ago i put new shoes and rotors and on the right side I had to put self threading bolts to hold on the caliper,I will check that as soon as i get home tonight, I took a look this morning with the whell all the way turned and I saw some clean spots where somthing is rubbing.

Are you saying you only put pads and rotors on the right side? If so that is your problem.

May be that those special bolts are not letting the caliper slide right and is getting hung up.

Rotate your tires front to back and back to front
is another suggestion.
You could have a bad tire on the front.
This happened to me !
