2023 Jeep Wrangler — car pulls right even though alignment is green

EVHaulerCommunity StarterAug 16, 20262023 Jeep Wrangler RubiconNew Jersey
2023 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, about 43,000 miles. Alignment printout is within spec, but the car still wants to drift right on a flat road.

Ask what changed right before it started. Swap the cheap/easy piece first on the 2023 Jeep Wrangler and see if the fault moves. That's the branch I'd chase this week. This is from a 2023 Jeep Wrangler in New Jersey with 43,000 miles. Happy to compare notes if your setup is different. Trying not to diagnose from the couch.

I'd want a measurement, not a hunch. Loaded-suspension checks on the 2023 Jeep Wrangler catch play that a wheels-hanging inspection misses. If the cheap test changes it, stop and reassess. If it doesn't change the out-the-door or the repair estimate, it's noise. I'd sleep better after that step, even if it finds nothing. If this is nothing, great. I want that in data.

I went back under the 2023 Jeep Wrangler and it only happens after a heat soak, not on a cold start. Trying not to diagnose from the couch.

Checked the easy stuff on the 2023 Jeep Wrangler and found one clue worth chasing before I book a shop. Not driving it hard until I know more.

Start with the test that can prove you wrong. Move a coil or plug on the 2023 Jeep Wrangler if it's cylinder-specific and see whether the code follows. If the cheap test changes it, stop and reassess. Was this after sitting overnight? Happens in gear, not in park, for what that's worth.
