That's kind of a broad question. How long has it been doing it? Have you hit any curbs, bottomed out the suspension, or anything like that, which could have altered the alignment, or damaged a component?
How many miles on the car? Maybe a worn part or two....

Maybe one of the bolts that secure the control arms in place worked loose, and allowed the control arm to shift. I'd start by looking for evidence of that, and if it proves wrong, maybe a bushing has worn, again, allowing the LCA to shift around. Does the car drive the same, or has it's feel changed a bit?
