Vehicle pulling is extremely frustrating and perpetually adjusting the steering wheel while driving the vehicle is additionally very unsafe if the person driving the vehicle gets distracted even for several seconds. The pulling issue can begin from different underlying roots. Determination of the proper root cause(s) among many doable choices is very important to rectify the pulling behavior. However, the diagnostic method is very complicated to put in practice due to the functional limitations of the manufacturing processes. In this research, we describe possible causes and remedial actions for the resolution of a vehicle having a drift or pull condition. The study was performed on a batch of vehicles having pulling problems and the wheel alignment values for those vehicles were matched with the defined values. Experiments were carried for understanding the effect of change in the tire conicity values, tire pressure, and many other parameters like road camber and crosswinds. We have proposed a generalized method based on our investigations for examination and resolution of the vehicle pulling problem.
