Default Got an alignment

Got an alignment done and the car seems to kinda drift to off to the right. Also it does it even more if I hit the brakes. My calipers are not sticking. I'm guessing its coz the caster is off on the right. For some reason he was some trouble with the right side.

They screwed up on your caster, it should be the same left to right.

Seems like the difference in toe-in for the rear is a bit larger than it should be

Caster 6.6 left vs 3.7 right is a huge difference. They shouldn't be more than 0.5 deg apart.

You can have them add a bit more rear toe in on the next alignment and also zero out front toe.
