Swap the wheels front to back, it made a difference on mine.

Wasn't this a major problem with early? mondeos - I remember a watchdog (sad) program with it on

I think you are right but I seem to recall they later found out all the affected cars had had some work done on them involving the subframe being removed/replaced....like clutch replacement....

 

Doesnt sound like this though?..I had this once on a car and the tyre had a slight bulge in it and this was enough to pull the car across the road!! :(
