Description of the problem | This is more of a concern and a inquiry. I recently purchased a 2010 lexus ls460 awd. I have notice that when making u-turns or sharp turns, the steering wheel fails to return to center by itself, and when i turn it back my self the wheel is no longer aligned with the car. I. E the normal position of the steering to go straight, is off about 90 degrees. This tend to cause over and understeer, and can be pretty scary when in traffic. |
