pedestrian and there child while crossing because the steering was off center causing me to steer the vehicle in the wrong direction. This morning while going to work. Today the wheel does the samething except worst then before. Now its a complete 90 off. Im driving with steering sideways. This has been a issue for the passed 2 days and its freaking me out. It happens mostly after pulling from parking or u-turn or just randomly. I do not know when to expect it. 2008 Ls should be in the recalls as well. The 2009 recall states steering ecu was the culprit and a new ecu had to be placed in ls vehicles exhibiting the problem. This needs to be taken very very seriously. God forbid you are home with your family and here I come smashing thru your living room with my lexus. Nhtsa campaign id# 10v218000
