Pulling to the left when braking
Brakes problem
1997 Ford Thunderbird V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 100000 miles
I have had new front calipers and rotors and my car still pulls to the left when braking. What else could it be causing the problem?

BRAKES PULL TO ONE SIDE:
Caused by contaminated linings, misadjusted brakes, a bad wheel cylinder or caliper, dragging brakes on one side or loose wheel bearings. Can also be caused by a mismatch of friction materials side-to-side on the front brakes or differences in rotor thickness, type or condition
