HI there,
This could be a steering or suspension problem, check that there is no oil leaking from the struts and when you bounce the front of the car it is not over soft or re bounds more than 1 1/2 times, this is just a rule of thumb check, poor tyres and uneven tyre pressures can cause this and check tie rod ends and rack mounts as well, start here.
