Front end alignment problems
1997 es 300.
90k miles clean
new tires
brakes
rotors.
I’ve had it aligned 3 times by a shop.
then aligned 1 time by a different shop.
car still pulls to the left.
Had anyone experienced a hard to align front 2 wheels ?

Hello,
When the car started pulling to the left?
Any reputable shop should give you an alignment spec sheet that specifies what's your current alignment, can you take a picture of it?
It's actually quite weird that none of the shops didn't actually go looking for a cause of this issue, doing just the alignment instead. Some shops offer free courtesy checks that look at the general condition of vital components in the car, it may be worth to sign up for one..
The fact that the car is veering to one side is not always caused by a bad alignment, defective tires can do it as well. Depending on how long this issue persisted, you may be able to see uneven wear on the tires, if the thread is wearing out in specific spots, not uniformly, then there is something wrong with the specific tire or the rim. Other than that, something like that may be caused by bad a bad strut on one of the sides.
Hope this helps and best of luck!
