Steering problem - Pulls to left even after alignment!

Hi everyone,

I drive a 1998 Nissan Maxima SE w/ 100,000 miles on it. For a while now, my car pulls hard to the left, mostly on the highway at high speeds. I've had 4 alignments done in the past 2 years, but that never solves the problem. The pulling to the left issue has happened before and after my new set of 4 tires too. Sometimes on side roads it'll pull right, but then pull left at high speeds on the high way. The steering is somewhat crooked too, I'll have to keep the wheel tilted to the right to keep the car going straight.

The overall feeling of the steering of the car is weird. I get small vibrations through the steering wheel and gas pedal. It almost feels like my tires aren't round or are somewhat wobbly. The steering basically has a mind of it's own.

I took it to one place and they said they couldn't feel it pulling, however I know for a fact it is!

What can be causing this issue? How about ball joints, struts, etc.? I don't know how to diagnose this problem, please advise!

Thanks.
