Yes! I've been having a steering problem. "unintended veering" that i began to notice a month after i bought the vehicle (then at 13,000 miles). Something is causing the car to wander at high speeds.

At other times it can seem to pulse. If you…

The dealership and toyota district rep have inspected the vehicle and suggest that this is "normal" behavior for the vehicle and no repair is necessary. I feel that this is a dangerous problem and should be corrected.…
