Vehicle constantly pulls to the right, have had the dealer look at it 3 times, they say there is no problem. They give me excuses such as tires need rotated, the steering is super sensitive, or it drives straight for them.

The steering wheel abruptly pulled to the right. When I tried to steer the vehicle back on the road, the steering did not respond well. The steering was out of control. This caused my vehicle to do a 180 and go off the road. The vehicle subsequently flipped 4 or 5 times. Also the airbags did not deploy even though there was front end damage.
Steering gear replaced due to binding. Mjs.
