Slower speeds it seems fine, but it's almost to the point of getting out of control at higher speeds like it is locking up (usually have to back off the brakes).

Was going to take it in, but I have a feeling this is going to be one of those things where the dealer sees no issue as it happens under weird edge conditions.
Another possibility is the left rotor is not being cleaned when your wiper sis on.

That would explain the pull to the right and also how after a few trys it goes away.
