Uneven brake wear?
When I brake from about 60 (35mph) to a full stop my car seems to pull to the right, seems to do it more so right before I am about to stop completely. Could this mean my left side brakes are out? or something else?

It means you have to take a good look at your brakes to figure out what's wrong.
If one side drags, it stays really hot so the OTHER side grabs better. That might be from seized caliper slide pins, or maybe the pads are wedged too tight in the caliper bracket?
It might even be suspension alignment??

Damn I don't know how to do any of that. Guess I'll get them to take a look when I do my oil change. It just started happening though so I thought it might be something more gradual.
