It is still in the shop."

Anonymous, NH (2000 Toyota Camry XLE 3.0-L V6)"During the past 6 months I have noticed when steering only to the right around a curved highway at speeds greater than 50 mph the steering wiggles from the front end of the car to the rear end of the car. It is like the rear steering needs to catch up with the tension and steering of the front of the car. The car does a strange sort of oscillating movement for 2 - 5 seconds before it stabilizes. This does not happen when going through a highway curve to the left, nor does it happen when turning right or left in town when making any kind of 90 degree or less turn at typical city speeds. Through very subtle curves to the right on the highway I do not notice the issue. I only notice the issue when there is a highway curve of approximately 20 - 30% curvature."
