After the car makes a right turn it will pull to the right and after a left turn is made it will pull to the left. What is the problem and how can it be fixed? It had a whinning sound that we thought was related to it so they put new fluid in the awd. The whinning stopped but the pulling still happens. The tires have been changed also but still not fixed. I have read about other complaints of the same but no one seems to know what the problem is. Can you help me? Thank you so much.

The pulling back/forth is the upper strut bearings binding, a way to check is to jack up the front end and turn the steering wheel lock to lock while someone watches the strut springs, if they jump or bind its the upper strut bearings. This will cause a pull to the left and right. Post back with any other questions.
