Problem overview

Some Toyota Camry owners report experiencing fishtailing and pulling to the right after an alignment, particularly worsening on bumps and in snowy conditions. Common causes for this issue include bad wheel alignment, uneven tire pressure, and worn suspension or steering components, which can make driving difficult and dangerous. Additionally, some owners find that sticking brake calipers or defective wheel bearings contribute to the problem. A thorough alignment check is crucial, as some services may only assess toe alignment, neglecting other important factors like caster. In certain cases, replacing tires or performing alignments may not fully resolve the issue, necessitating further actions such as tire swapping or replacing specific tires. It is recommended that owners seek a comprehensive inspection to identify the root cause of these handling issues.
