Default Accord pulls strongly to the left

Wifey's car (2002 Accord) steered fine when we got it. A couple months ago she got her tires rotated and shortly after it started pulling to the left pretty badly. We took it Saturday to get aligned, and it still pulls to the left, not as severely, but bad enough. I got a lifetime alignment, but really just want to be able to fix it myself if possible. Do I have any options, or should we take it back and get them to check it again? Thanks

in the DIY section there is a post on how to check/align your vehicle so you can see if it's right yourself.... sounds like it's still out of alignment

uneven tire wear will cause alligment problems even when the car is perfectly alligned. check your tires for uneven wear........

Try crossing the front tires. Does that change the pull?
