It started out pulling one way or the other when you went around a corner, now coming home it started to pull when I came around a corner on the highway first one way and then the other like you were hitting ruts in the road. I have had the steering gear box replaced twice and it still does it.

I don’t mean to be snarky, I think you need a second opinion from another mechanic.

What about the rest of the steering linkage? Replaced?

Tires and bad wheel bearings can cause this too.

You need a good suspension shop to have a look.

Has it been on the alignment rack? Just wondering about a caster issue is why I ask.

Pulls one way or the other? Try looking at the bushings.
