my Honda Accord pulls to one side when driving what could be the issue

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather tools and parts needed for the repair.
• Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface and switch off the engine.

2. Tire Pressure Adjustment

• Use a tire pressure gauge to check the pressure in each tire.
• Inflate or deflate tires to match the manufacturer’s recommended pressure (found in the owner’s manual or on the door jamb).

3. Tire Rotation or Replacement

• If uneven tire wear is detected, consider rotating the tires to promote even wear.
• Replace tires if they are excessively worn or damaged.

4. Wheel Alignment

• Tools Required: Alignment rack, torque wrench
• Adjust the toe, camber, and caster angles as per the manufacturer’s specifications.
  1. Loosen the adjustment bolts for toe settings.
  2. Use alignment gauges to set the correct angles.
  3. Tighten bolts to the specified torque settings.

5. Suspension Inspection and Repair

• Inspect all suspension components for signs of wear or damage.
• Replace any worn or damaged components, such as control arms, bushings, or struts.
• Reassemble components and ensure all fasteners are torqued to manufacturer specifications.
