steering pull to the left, you probably need a wheel alignment, it should fix
if it doesn't work, bush maybe worn.

1. Can be many things
- bushes
-tyres (most likely)
-shocks
-brakes (may be related to brake issue)
-A wheel alingment wont cause an FTO to pull left or right as there ar no adjustment to do so (only front toe and rear camber/toe) It will only affect how the car handles eg: responsive or dull steering and tyre wear.

2. Brake calliper may be seized (relating to pulls left)
- also most probably due for good bleed and fluid change, its something that most people tend to neglect but should be done at least every 12months
