"Most of my driving is in town so I didn't notice a serious problem until I took a trip across state. All of the sudden my car veered into another lane on interstate. Thankfully the traffic was light at the time or it certainly would have caused an accident. I had it checked out at a Toyota dealer. Their test drive confirmed a serious alignment problem even though they couldn't see any visible causes. They aligned the wheels and it is much better, but not perfect."
