2016 Accord Sport Pulls to the left

Hi, just purchased a 2016 Sport 2 weeks ago. It pulls to the left, even from the slow lane on the highway. Went to dealer to pick up reg last night and had them do an alignment under warranty. However, it still pulls to the left. The front passenger wheel tow was out, but corrected with the alignment.

Two questions: 1) are the alignment specs for the 2016 Sport the same as 2014-2015, which were listed on the before/after printout? If yes, that could explain things. If no, 2) Any idea what would cause the car to pull to the left besides an alignment issue. Note, I also check the air pressure in all 4 tires to ensure they were set properly.

Description: when driving on highway, car pulls to the left within 500 feet or so. If I turn the wheel to the right and let go, it will eventually still pull left.

    You might consider switching the front tires left and right...if the car now pulls right, then your tire is probably out of round, right from the factory. While you are doing this you can also check to see if the brakes are dragging on the left side, by spinning the tire and seeing if it rotates freely. If all this fails, go to another alignment shop for a second opinion. This won't be covered by warranty but maybe you could ask for re-imbursement from the factory.
