    Steering wheel vibrates lightly at 60 mph or more, once the speed lowers to 59 mph or less it steady. I ask the dealer for the situation and they said that the steering alignment is perfect. Tires were rotated but didn't worked. *tr

    Steering wheel will start vibrating/shaking at speeds between 60-68. Brought it to the dealer the day after i purchased the vehicle, they couldn't find anything wrong. Said toyota was aware but didn't have any solution. Issue will occur about 98% of the time and will last until you drive below 59 mph. *tr

    Steering wheel started jerking abnormally in the am or after it has not been driven for a while. Now it can happen at any time but not all the time and it occurs between 60 and 70 mph. I have taken it to the dealer eight times. They replaced the tires but it didn't correct the issue. I have been told toyota is aware but they have not been advised me of that. Toyota is taking care of the lexus and the gx models first.
