Lane Wander 2019 ES




It's {likely|doubtless|possible|probably|seemingly} {done|accomplished|achieved|carried out|completed|executed|finished|performed} it for a {several|a number of} years. My {wife|spouse} had the {car|automobile|automotive} for first few, and {mentioned|talked about} it {a couple of|a few} {times|instances|occasions}. I figured new tires would {correct|appropriate|right} {the problem|the issue}. Nope. Next step was alignment, {but it|but it surely|however it|nevertheless it} {still|nonetheless} requires {constant|fixed} steering. I'm driving it now since {I am|I'm} on the {road|highway|street} for work, and {it is|it's} {less than|lower than} {pleasant|nice} on the {highway|freeway}. Tires and alignment {have not|haven't} helped. Wanted to get a second opinion on the alignment {results|outcomes} ({bottom|backside} half of the {attached|connected|hooked up} {photo|photograph|picture}) from members of this {forum|discussion board}. It's {definitely|positively|undoubtedly} not {normal|regular} behaviour for this {vehicle|automobile|car}. {You should|It is best to|It's best to|You must|You need to} {probably|in all probability|most likely} have {someone|somebody} {experienced|skilled} with this {sort of|form of|kind of|type of} {thing|factor} diagnose it, like your {local|native} {dealer|seller|supplier|vendor}. It's {definitely|positively|undoubtedly} not {normal|regular} behaviour for this {vehicle|automobile|car}. {You should|It is best to|It's best to|You must|You need to} {probably|in all probability|most likely} have {someone|somebody} {experienced|skilled} with this {sort of|form of|kind of|type of} {thing|factor} diagnose it, like your {local|native} {dealer|seller|supplier|vendor}. Local Lexus {dealer|seller|supplier|vendor} did the alignment and subsequent {test|check|take a look at} drive.





They {feel|really feel} it drives {normally|usually}. {I think|I believe|I feel} {they are|they're} clearly {looking for|in search of|on the lookout for|searching for} an {obvious|apparent} pull {to one|to 1|to at least one} {side|aspect|facet} or {the other|the opposite}. {This is not|This isn't} the case. None of our {other|different} {cars|automobiles|vehicles} wander {like the|just like the} ES does. My steps {would be|can be|could be}: 1. Inspect {control|management} arms/bushings and tow bars. 2. Inspect wheel bearings 3. Measure tread depth on {each|every} tire. Do an alignment, drive it {a little|a bit|a bit of|a little bit|just a little|slightly|somewhat} bit and put it {right|proper} {back|again} on the machine and see if the settings held. Ask the dealership to see if their alignment rack is calibrated. Then ask them to take the camber bolt out, {clean|clear} the holes {and then|after which} {try to|attempt to} do the alignment, had this {same|identical|similar} {issue|challenge|concern|difficulty|problem|situation|subject} on our CR-V, which was {fixed|fastened|mounted} by reseating the cam bolt. Highway stability with {more|extra} {positive|constructive|optimistic} camber {in the|within the} rear. Was {recently|just lately|lately|not too long ago} {told|advised|informed|instructed} that {a little|a bit|a bit of|a little bit|just a little|slightly|somewhat} {negative|adverse|damaging|destructive|detrimental|unfavorable|unfavourable} camber on the rear tires would {actually|really|truly} {increase|enhance|improve} {highway|freeway} stability, which is {contrary|opposite} to the {statement|assertion} above. Has {anyone|anybody} {actually|really|truly} had the rear camber adjusted? My {car|automobile|automotive}, when going above {80|eighty} mph it feels {like the|just like the} {body|physique} of the {car|automobile|automotive} {is going|goes} to detach itself from the wheels.





{Have not|Haven't} felt like this since my oldsmobile 88 25 years {ago|in the past}. Took to {dealer|seller|supplier|vendor} twice, {both|each} {times|instances|occasions} {they say|they are saying} is {perfectly|completely} {normal|regular} for ES, so i assumed the {car|automobile|automotive} rode like this from {factory|manufacturing facility|manufacturing unit}. {I was|I used to be} {quite|fairly} dissapointed for {the first|the primary} 2 months, i hated {every|each} {bit of|little bit of} driving it. A to {point|level} B with zero joy of driving. Nope, not {at all|in any respect} {normal|regular}. That {said|mentioned|stated}, some roads are crowned {more than|greater than} others, {but|however} {you would|you'd|you'll} {notice|discover} it with most {vehicles|automobiles|autos} in {that same|that very same} stretch of {road|highway|street}. Nope, not {at all|in any respect} {normal|regular}. That {said|mentioned|stated}, some roads are crowned {more than|greater than} others, {but|however} {you would|you'd|you'll} {notice|discover} it with most {vehicles|automobiles|autos} in {that same|that very same} stretch of {road|highway|street}. It's {a very|a really} {subtle|delicate|refined} leaning {where|the place} i require minimal {movement|motion} of the steering wheel to {correct|appropriate|right}. Also, driving the {car|automobile|automotive} {under|below|beneath|underneath} 60 mph it feels {ok|okay}. I took the {car|automobile|automotive} to {110|a hundred and ten|one hundred ten} or so mph on the {highway|freeway}.





It {did not|didn't} {feel|really feel} {safe|protected|secure} {At all|In any respect}. I {usually|normally|often} take all my {cars|automobiles|vehicles} to rev limiter to see {how fast|how briskly} it goes and {how it|the way it} feels. I {have to|must|need to|should} say there are {very few|only a few} {cars|automobiles|vehicles} {i did not|i didn't} {feel|really feel} {safe|protected|secure} doing this. Lincoln towncar was the worst and it {wouldn't|would not} even go {past|previous} {90|ninety} mph (had a 1992 with 300k miles). My 15 ES feels awfully {close to|near} that lincoln towncar, {i'm|i am} not joking.

My 15 ES feels awfully {close to|near} that lincoln towncar, {i'm|i am} not joking. {Sounds like|Appears like|Feels like|Seems like} {something|one thing}'s broke. {Sounds like|Appears like|Feels like|Seems like} {something|one thing}'s broke. Agreed. {This is not|This isn't} {normal|regular} {at all|in any respect}. Our ES {does not|doesn't} behave {this way|this fashion|this manner}. We {just|simply} returned from a 3000 mile {road|highway|street} {trip|journey} with our 2015 and {never|by no means} {experienced|skilled} the sensation you described. It drove true and straight with no {problems|issues} ({except for|apart from|aside from} a rock that punched clear {through|by|by means of|by way of|via} my license plate ({finally|lastly} {found|discovered} a use for that {front|entrance} plate). The {road|highway|street} speeds {were|had been|have been} {mostly|largely|principally} 70 mph on two lane highways and {80|eighty} on interstates. If if the {dealer|seller|supplier|vendor} can抰 {correct|appropriate|right} the steering {issue|challenge|concern|difficulty|problem|situation|subject}, {I would|I might|I'd} {recommend|advocate|suggest} {you take|you are taking|you're taking} it to a suspension specialist. I had an Audi like {that once|that after|that when}, {and found|and located} an {independent|impartial|unbiased} {shop|store} that made it drive like new {again|once more} - {despite the fact that|although|even if|even supposing|even though} the {dealer|seller|supplier|vendor} couldn抰 resolve {the issue|the difficulty|the problem}.
