I have a 03’ Dakota SXT that within the last few days started pulling to the right when I step on the brakes hard. What might it be?

The brakes are sticking on the right front. A good mechanic will be able to fix this for you. It can be one of several malfunctions so it should be looked at right away. In a panic stop you could find yourself in a ditch or worse.
