First thing to check would be the brakes. sort them out then see if it has improved if not worn track rod ends could do it, as could wheel bearings, and any suspension component.. just a case of seeing whats loose really.. start with the brakes and go form there.

Check the disc thickness, plus the health of your calipers, has one of them seized partially (giveaway: have the pads worn unevenly). Could also be the wheel alignment. All these have had an effect on the side to side braking balance of any car I've driven with this problem.
