Need to pull the codes and post those. A pull is most times caused by a tire (belt shifted internally) You can swap the front tires and if it pulls left afterward it is a tire. If not then camber/caster needs to be checked.

Yea, There is a code in the PCM for the AT light flashing. You just can't guess on that. You will have to get the codes pulled.
