My car is pulling ever so slightly to the left ever since i day one. I tried tire pressure but still does it. Is this covered under warranty or will they tell me maybe i ran over a big pothole and it's my fault. by the way, no potholes or anything that would knock the alignment off.

Usually the manufacturer will allow "adjustments" such as this under warranty for the first year or 12k miles.

Once my dad ran over a big pothole and after that he had to get an alignment done. So now he avoids them even more and about 2 months ago a cop pulls him over because he thinks my dad is drunk. The cop didn't have the brains to figure out he was avoiding potholes.

The dealer will look at it for sure. If they find it was negligence, then they would charge you. I would have to venture that most dealers would fix it under warrantee.

When I whacked a Honda and had the car on a frame straightener (just slightly tweaked, not bad, really) I took it to the dealer for an alignment and wouldn't cover it.
