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.

problem #1

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.
