2025 Ram 1500 Alignment Problems

Why only 2025? My alignment was perfect before the dealership realigned it to spec. Then it pulled right slightly. For anyone that didn't read this entire thread, I got an alignment after installing the Bilstein 5100s and new UCAs.

mine was the same situation, mine pulled after level kit install and realignment. although I did not take delivery until the level was installed.
 
My 2025 has the same issue. It pulled to the right, noticeably, brand new off the lot. I then put a 2" level kit on it and have since had 3 alignments done. 2 being done at my local dealers and 1 at a local shop. My truck still won't track straight. I have to hold my wheel slightly to the right. If I hold the wheel dead center (to me), the truck tracks left. Very annoying. I had my dealer utilize that TSB on my last alignment a week or two ago. So it didn't help me.
 
Updates: I have had multiple responses from other 2025 Ram 1500 owners with the same issues related to their truck pulling right and/or steering wheel off-center to the right. I have been dealing with trying to get my own 2025 Ram 1500 for 6 weeks now. At first, the dealers were very involved for multiple attempts to correct it (loaner cars, etc.). The first dealer tried all day and eliminated the belief that it was alignment related. One dealer aligned my truck technically to the edge of specs to get it to drive "straighter" which made me at least "happier." However it seems like it is only now that nationally the problem is being recognized by dealers. With 2400 dealer spread out across the country - it likely will take time for the issue to be corrected. So far, my own experience has led me to believe that the pulling problem is related to the steering components or the "rack" per dealer terms. Possibly software related to the steering angle sensor or lane management system. I am not convinced it is completely alignment related, but I could be wrong. I sent all of the forum comments to my dealer and they have acknowledged the issue is now more widespread than later last year. The most "calming" part is the validation that more customers are having problems and I wasn't the only one losing my mind. The more comments from new customers on these forums will probably go a long way in getting those of us earlier "customer zeroes" on our way to a better experience with these expensive trucks.
There is a TSB that addresses this exact problem
TSB 08-093-25
 
Great to read all this. Bought my 2025 a month and half ago, demo truck from Fox, has the Fox 2.5 shock BMS lift, I think its a 5 or 6 inch lift. Either way, the GM had the truck, put 5K on it before I bought it. On test drive I noticed it was "darty" and pulled to the right very hard. Noticed a brand new tire rod boot was torn, leaking grease. So they had the truck for 2 weeks, got the tierod warranty'd from Fox (warranty through Fox/BMS). They didnt align it like I asked them to, so I brought it back for an alignment. Still didnt fix it. So I took it to a local tire shop with a very nice alignment system. They aligned it, the changes were pretty significant, red to green, so I know the dealer didnt touch it like they said they did. It was maybe 25% better. And now, 1500 miles later, its back to darting all over the road and steering off center, pulling to right.
I am definitely taking the TSB to the local dealer on next oil change. I know the alignment is right, so it has to be the SAS/EPS acting up and "auto correcting" incorrectly.
