Vechicle Veers to the Right when under heavy Braking

just as the title reads, when ever I go to brake, the vechicle slightly pulls right, but when i do a panic stop, the vechicle Veers violently right (even when holding the steering wheel straight).....
Anyone know of any possibly problems, and solutions?


any help would be appreciated.
 
I ain'ts no brakes expert.

But, I would look at your left brake caliper. It may be stuck, leaking, etc.

Jack-up the front, have someone apply the brakes(lightly initially), then try to rotate the wheels by hand. Chances are you will have more friction on the right wheel than the left one.
 
Your right front brake is engaging while your left is not or only working at half of what it should.

This could be worn pads, bad caliper or bad flex lines. Braking issue none the less.

Good luck.
 
Check your hubs. A few months ago my bearings were shot and it kinda twisted the rotor inside the pads and it overheated the right side brakes so when I braked it would pull to the left really hard.
