2004 CE pulls to right when I brake
I have a 2004 CE with about 4,000 miles.
Car pulls to the right when I brake hard. It seems this started to happen once I took the car out from the winter sleep.
I have the run flats and car bounces all over the place when you hit a bump and brakes squeal like hell.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Joe

Could be a few things ranging from a sticky caliper bolt, to differing caster angles between the sides (alignment), to a bad shock.
How do the tires look? Are the wearing normal?

Brake pulling
Hi, because it happened after you took it out of storage, and was ok when you put it in it leads me to think that either the caliper bolt needs high temp brake lube, or one side of your discs have rusted over the storage period. Take it out and make a few hard stops from 60mph untill you heat them up a bit. sometimes this works the problem out. Of course make sure it is a safe place to do this.
Good Luck
