Check the inflation of the rear tires, if the 2 tires are inflated differently it could make a difference. Also check the wheel bearings front and rear. A bad bearing can give you fits.

First is noise----do they growl while you ride?--Next--lift the wheels off the ground ----Pull them push them wiggle them---tehy shouldnt move excessively---
Usually they are pretty easy to spot----Just spend a few minutes thinking about what they should and shouldnt do--and it will become apparent ---
Check to make sure your hubs are not striped, but mostlikely you have a bent axle.

Also check to make sure the rear axle carrier is square with the rest of the trike. It might have got out of line when someone tightened the chain in the past.
First though, as was already posted, check your air pressure in the rear tires. Even just push on each one with your foot & see if they feel the same or not.
Try swapping the rear tires from side to side & see if it pulls to the left. If it does, you know it's just a tire pressure problem.
