Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY STEERING WHEEL SOMETIMES JERKS TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT SO WHEN I DRIVE MY HAD IS ALWAYS FIRM ON THE STEERING WHEEL BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHEN IT MY JERK AGAIN, IT HAPPENS MOSTLY HAPPENS ON ROADS THAT ARE NOT STRAIT SURFACE, MY BIGGEST WORRIES IS THAT WHEN I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND WAS ON LEFT LANE THE CAR JERKED TO THE LEFT AND ALMOST WENT STRAIT TO THE CONCRETE BARRIER. I TOOK IT TO SEWELL LEXUS AND THEY COULD NOT IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM AT THE TIME THEY SAID IT WAS MY BAD BREAK PADS AND BAD FRONT ROTORS, SO I GOT THAT DONE THINKING IT WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM THE COST DO GET THAT DONE WAS $1,002.92 AND AFTER DRIVING OFF THE DEALER THE CAR STILL HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THE CAR DRIVES SMOOTH BUT IT HAS THOSE SUDDEN STEERING JERKS THAT REALLY CONCERN ME. *TR
