90% of pulls is tire related,,control arms and ball joints usually last 200k miles and are easy to replace but costly
Bad control arm bushings seem to be a pretty frequent problem judging from posts to the forums, especially if you have an oil leak. I just replaced my control arms and ball joints last year, they may be expensive to have done at a shop but they are very easy to change yourself and the parts are cheap. I got mine from internetautomart and I think it was aroune $80 total, it made a huge difference in the ride quality. That being said it could be a tire, my escape had the same symptoms when one of the belts separated.
