Hello all just came back from the car was pulling the the left and they Cross rotate the front tiers and the pull wen to the right so Replaced the two front tires And check the alignment and it was fine now going to work the car still Driffs to the left at 60 to 65 mph what can be Wrong. Thank you all for your input
 
check tire pressure first.

rim bent == steering wheel shimmy or vibration, not pulling (to left or right).

Also get dealership to check alignment (did you hit a porthole or similar)

Q.

+1 You might have to fight the dealer as I am sure they will say that the alignment was great when they gave it to you. I agree with the above, bring it in for them to check and with only 800 miles they darn well should fix it for free. Sounds like an alignment.

Have seen that before.

Toyota warrants new car alignment for 1 year or 20,000 miles, so you have plenty of time for that. Ask for the alignment printout (it will show the actual numbers) and post that here. Those familiar with alignment settings will be able to see what's going on.

I don't know what else it could be if the alignment checks out.
You weren't just driving into a nasty cross wind? Seems like it's been windy forever lately, my steering wheel is always off center driving to work because I have had constant cross winds on my route.
 
If the cross caster alignment is correct you may need the rear tires replaced also. I prefer a road force balance to know tires condition. Is there a heavy weight maldistribution? I DID not have ANY comment about your wife.
