Nissan Pathfinder Steering Problem

My 2008 Nissan Pathfinder is pulling to the right. The steering wheel is also jerking (almost pulsing) toward the passenger side as well especially at speeds of 25 - 50 km/hr. After that, the steering wheel vibrates but is less noticable. An ideas?

Could be a tread separation in one of the front tires. Get it to the tire place and have it inspected straightaway. Most of them will do this free of charge.
