My 07 Prius pulls to the left when moderately braking. I took it to the dealer last weekend and of course they could not duplicate it. It still pulls to the left when moderately braking from 15-30 mph (i.e. when stopping for a light). Has anyone else had this problem or know of a fix?
If your tire pressures are the same side-to-side then you need an alignment check. You get a free one in the first 12 months/12,000 miles. Go to a different dealer and tell them you car wanders on the highway and pulls left braking, they need an excuse to write up. Wayne

The dealer said it may be a brake problem, and they also switched the front tires to see if it corrected the problem. Neither helped. They switched the tires back, and did the alignment (on warranty) on found the right front wheel was out of spec. That seemed to correct 95% of the problem. It still has a slight tendency to pull, but in general a big improvement. It must be the nature of the beast. IMO all new Priis should have the alignment checked soon after delivery to preclude tire wear.
