Alignment issue
When I had my '05 MCS, I found that a couple psi difference in the tire pressure would cause a pull, It was even more noticeable when accelerating.
For a slight pull, try increasing the pressure on the side its pulling to, one tire may be a few psi different than the other, but the car will go straight..
Of course set it using a level road.....
Haven't had any trouble with my CM.

Had my 2012 Countryman S for about a month now. It was pulling to the right and at times at freeway speeds, 65-75, there would be a very slight wobble, it seemed like I had to quickly adjust my steering back and forth to stay in the center of my lane. It was very frustrating to be dealing with this on a new car. So I took it in to the dealer, they re-balanced the tires, checked the alignment. Now the pull to the right is much less noticeable, but it's still kinda there. The wobble has also not happened as often, but again like the pulling issue, it still kinda happens. I'll see if it gets any worse before taking it back to the dealer again.
If alignment and wheel balance are good, it could be a defect with one tire that doesn't affect balance. Perhaps suggest that the dealer rotate the tires front to back and see if it changes the problem.

That's what old threads are for
We are approaching 3k miles on ours, and there's no pull at all, although I'm feeling a very slight vibration at highway speeds that was not there when it was brand new. Almost not even worth mentioning, and I assume it's nothing worse than a tire slightly out of balance.
