[W126 Coupe] front wheel question

[Jay Hirsch]

If it only happen when applying brakes, don't apply the brakes anymore

Would check brake rotors and pads.  Or caliper, could be locking up

If car goes  straight when letting go of steering wheel on level  
road,  is not alignment.

How old are tires and how many miles on tires,  one  or more could be  
out of  round.
See if problem occurs at 60, 65,  70, and 75

Problem is not Mercedes related   but  car related to any make
keep cruisin
