“Having an issue with my 2014 lexus is350 steering..the steering feels notchy and grabs when going around curves..it does it when returning wheel back to straight position..and wheel has to be pulled back into straight position or it will keep pulling ..thats when it catches and causes the jerk in the steering.. Usually when driving a car It'll somewhat straighten itself smoothly.. I have taken it to repair shops to have alignment/ brakes/rotors done and nothing has helped this what so ever. I've seen many forums about this same issue.. …”
