and took a 25 mile drive. I think the car needs an alignment... after all, it hasn't had one in almost 50k miles :(

If I hit the gas, it now pulls up and to the left in any gear at any RPM... unlike when it used to just go straight. It also feels like it pulls down and to the right when I let off the throttle. I hope I didn't break anything :'(

Make sure the tire pressures are okay.

Hmm. Sounds like a suspension bushing or transmission mount...?

I hope I don't have a bad motor mount :(

Also, could it be the front subframe?

That's possible too, the subframe to body mounts are usually rubber... what kind of car are we talking about here? Based on your name and avatar is it a Jetta?
