Has anyone experienced this problem?

My Xtrail pulls to the right when I accelerate! As soon as I lift off the car straightens up. I have been to three independent garages who all tell me they cant find anything wrong!

Going to the Dealer tomorrow but am not expecting anything different. One of the mechanics thought it might be either gearbox mountings or drive shafts>

Any advice would be appreciated

Has it always done this? If it has started gradually I would look at the condition of your front tyres.

Have seen this from a badly worn lower ball joint. But would have expected your independent garages to have spotted this.
