Torque Steer
Torque steer is present in the TL's under hard accelaration or rough cornering but it's not a problem with the car. It's just physics. Just hang on tight and enjoy the power!
Here's a clear definition I copied from another site.
'If a vehicle pulls to one side under acceleration, it's got torque steer. Torque steer may also try to yank the front wheels toward straight ahead when accelerating with the wheels turned. Though undesirable, some torque steer may have been designed into the car. The sideways mounting of the engine in most front-wheel drive cars tends to promote torque steer because the differential may not be centered in the chassis, causing left and right halfshafts to differ in length. Under hard acceleration, the car may pull toward the shorter shaft.'
