Dave, if your car is pulling to the right when all four tires are inflated equally, that's a dead giveaway that there's an alignment or (less likely) suspension problem.

I too had trouble with the tires wearing unevenly, so I decided to take it back to the dealer to get it checked out. This is what they told me: They DON'T cover alignments after 12,000 miles. Regardless of car age. So I couldn't get it covered under warranty. Have to get it aligned out of my own pocket :(
