Seems like our van is pulling as we are driving on the freeway that has a slight incline and sometimes feels like something hits the bottom of the driver side gas pedal.
as it is "pulling" it slows a bit and feels like it is shaking the van.
thank you.

Hi:

To me it sounds like you have some loose front end parts. I would suggest having the front end components checked and an alignment. If I had to guess, I would say you have loose ball joints; however, let a qualified mechanic check it.
