How hard do you have to accelerate before it pulls? Normal take off or hard dig??
How many miles are on the car?
Do you see any AH or TC messages in the DIC when its pulling?
I live in Groton /
Gales Ferry if you cant figure it out.

Check tire pressure. My car started pulling one direction, after checking tire pressure realized i only had 20psi in one wheel. Could hardly tell it was low from just eyeballing it. I check the pressure regularly now.

Jack the rear so both rear tires are off the ground. Have someone hold the drivers side wheel while you attempt to rotate the passengers wheel. There should be a fair amount of force needed. If it rotates easily, your looking at a broken Belview spring and or worn posi clutches.
If you do a burn out the marks should be even and the same color.
Check out this mark I left and carefully examine the RIGHT mark. It looks different that the left:
Heres why its different:
The springs keep pressure on the clutches so they bit and limit slip. When the spring breaks, the clutches slip and eventually wear out:
