Sorta hard to tell over a computer. Visit a tire and alignment shop to have the steering and suspension systems inspected. Loose brake pads and worn anti-sway bar links are two of the more common causes. Neither of those are especially serious, just annoying. Other things like worn control arm bushings can lead to handling problems and tire wear. Struts, ball joints, and tie rod ends will also be checked. Those can lead to more serious problems if ignored.
