What owners wrote

Vehicle has been back to dealer twice for "wandering". Changes in the road surface cause the car to change directions radiacally. The car was out of alignment when serviced, but this didn't help. Now, the steering wheel is to the left when going straight. Dealer says this is "normal". The car has veered out of my lane many times out of my control. It gets worse at higher speeds. I have adjusted tire pressures with no change.

Took the car to good year change a bunch of parts. Aftet that took the car to get the oil changed. On the 01/27/2016 check engine light is now on the the vehicle. I sent you are report last week as well. I need your intervention. Please stop toyota from ripping consumer off. It now states that the gas cap is off and or loose. This is not the case.
