Thank you all for your replies...
I can rule out the new tire symptoms as there are over 1500 miles on these tires now.
The temperature also is not a factor in this case as the temperature that I was driving in was mid 50's up to mid 70's...
Also, I should add that this issue was not present prior to going to the dealer for the mentioned work and alignment.
The dealer confirmed that the tranny had to be partially removed to replace the seals on the one side.
I wonder if they did not reinstall the tranny properly or didnt tighten a mount?
I would hope that the dealer would notice if a mount was not functioning properly when they were working on them??
One other thing.. now that I have found this issue in a left turn only (right turns are not affected at all under similar conditions as I went both ways around a corner yesterday under full acceleration and this only happened going to the left) I noticed that if I fully accelerate in a straight line, I can make the same veering movement that I found in the left turns...when I use the tip to generate more torque on acceleration, the front end moves to the right, then moves back to the left when I let off the throttle... also I noticed that if I use the tip to lower the gear manually, the rear end "wiggles" as the gears are lowered...I think that either the tranny or motor mounts may be the issue here but am not sure...
Any other thoughts are greatly appreciated...
