Maybe something as simple as wheel alignment off or steering angle sensor could be anything without any fault codes

Get the codes read 1st and then get them cleared and get them read again.

It'll most likely be an ABS sensor,trigger ring,damaged sensor wire or dry joint on the pump circuitry. That's the main suspects.
