Consumer Description

THE STEERING IS TERRIBLE. EVERY TIME I GET ONTO THE HIGHWAY, I HAVE TO HOLD ON TO THE STEERING WHEEL VERY HARD WITH BOTH HANDS TO FEEL SAFE. I AM ALWAYS WORRIED ABOUT HITTING THE CAR NEXT TO. THE CAR SWERVES CONSTANTLY, AND IS VERY HARD TO CONTROL. I CAN NOT BELIEVE THAT A RELATIVELY NEW CAR SUCH AS THIS CAN NOT STAY STRAIGHT ON THE ROAD. IT FEELS AS IF IT WERE EXTREMELY WINDY OUTSIDE MAKING THE CAR SHAKE LEFT AND RIGHT. I HAVE ALWAYS TRUSTED TOYOTA AND THOUGHT THAT THEY SOLD NOTHING BUT THE BEST. I HAVE LOST THE JOY AND EXCITEMENT IN DRIVING. PLEASE CORRECT THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE. BLIND SPOTS ARE ALSO A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE I HAVE FOUND. ALSO, THERE IS AN EXTREMELY ANNOYING RATTLE INSIDE THE CAR. IT SOUNDS LIKE IT IS COMING FROM THE CEILING, AND FROM THE REAR WINDSHIELD. IT IS NOTICEABLE AT ALL SPEEDS. *TR
