Car Steers Right even after multiple alignments

[jbanh100]

Any suggestions as to what could possibly be up,

I did get into an accident that resulted in the right side of the car slamming into a median,

After repairs, the car sits lower on the right as opposed to the left. Which suspension component can it be? I've had the damaged side's springs replaced.

The car also likes to veer to the right still, but it's very prominent when I press on the brakes when approaching a stop. The steering wheel jerks by itself to the right when I come to a hard stop. Could a brake line be pinched? I wouldn't think this is the case because the car still veers to the right under load and not braking. My brake rotors are fine also. I'm sure it's not the alignment because I've been to multiple different shops and gotten alignments and the issue still exists.

Thanks for any insight.

Could be that there's a bent component that no one has noticed. Just because alignment isn't catching it doesnt mean it's not an issue if you can lift the car start measuring parts also measure the gap around the tires to make sure that are even

Have an alignment shop check the steering axis inclination. The caster and camber may be ok, but if the SAI is off, strange things will happen, especially when the suspension travels like on braking.

Funny enough, I explained this to one of the shops and they already checked the SAI, unfortunately either they lied and didn't complete the task or it just didn't fix the problem. Thanks for the suggestion, hopefully I'll figure it out so I can get the confidence to go do some pulls again.

I am thinking that there may be a bent component as the force of the impact of the accident was enough to deploy the airbags. I will go ahead and check as I can jack the car up, anything specific to go look for. The car is definitely uneven as you can notice it from the front not just the fenders and I did measure and it was about an inch in difference. Reputable shop installed my springs and struts as before the accident everything was fine, so I doubt they didn't clock the bushings as others on the forum suggested. Thank you so much for your suggestion though!
