possible alignment issue?

I have a 2013 GSR. I noticed starting around 750 miles that while driving down the road if I let go of the wheel I feel the car start to walk for about 3 seconds then pick a direction and pull that way hard. This is just holding a constant speed no acceleration. this is my first AWD so is this normal or is it just an alignment. I have read on here that coming from the factory the alignment is normally off. Any thoughs

Thanks

Check alignment.

Evo tracks in ruts poorly as well. That's normal for rutted roads.

To reduce the tendency of an Evo X to follow ruts and/or be yanked side to side by them, cut the rear toe in half.

Stock alignments are almost always off; complain to the dealer about it and you'll most likely get a free alignment out of the deal under warranty (I did at ~750 miles).
