My 08 TL steering is perfect going down the highway, stays straight, no pulls at all, no vibrations. What I am experiencing is a weird pull when slowing down almost to a stop from driving fast or slowing down and the road surface is uneven, the steering wheel pulls right or left depending on the surface, and i have to really grab the wheel or the car will turn? Not sure if this is a normal phenomenon or not? Its kind of hard to explain, but i do notice it a lot. Any others experience this?

 

Your car is reacting to the road. I wouldn't worry about it one bit, especially if it stays straight and doesn't pull under normal driving.

 

Might be a toe out issue. Its hunting.

 

I have the same problem in terms of the steering pulling towards any imperfection in the road and it also wobbles side to side violently when going over bumps.

 

You can have an inner or outer tie rod with some play. Just a little play will cause this. Also toe can contribute to the problem. Finding a good alignment shop is difficult around where I live. I think there is a service bulletin for this too.. I thought I had it, but I cant find it at the moment. But I would address the TOE first. I had this problem but solved most of it by getting a good alignment. But there still may be some slight wear on some of the steering components. It all adds up over time. But the main thing to suspect is if you have a "new problem" immediately after an alignment job. Then you know you need to get a better alignment. because this darting around doesn't usually just appear that fast unless someone tinkered with it.
