RECENTLY PURCHASED, 2014 SE V6 CAMRY WITH 60MILES ON IT, ONLY 5 WEEKS OLD NOW, I DIDN'T NOTICE THE PROBLEM UNTIL I WAS ON THE FREEWAY GOING ABOUT 65+ THE FIRST DAY I BOUGHT IT, CAR WILL NOT COME BACK TO CENTER WHEN TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT, I CAN LET GO OF THE STEERING WHEEL AND IT WILL CONTINUE TO TURN. FEELS LIKE IM DRIVING ON A VERY RAINY/WINDY DAY, VERY FLIMSY. I WOULD HAVE TO CONSTANTLY CORRECT THE CAR TO GO STRAIGHT, BROUGHT IT IN TO TOYOTA DEALER FOUR TIMES NOW, HAD 2 ALIGNMENTS DONE BY TOYOTA, STILL NO HELP, ALL THEY KEEP TELLING ME IS, "THATS HOW THE CAR IS DESIGNED", AFTER THAT THEY TRIED TO TELL ME IT WAS DEFECTIVE TIRES, WHICH WAS NOT TRUE, I SWAPPED OUT THE TIRES, STILL DIDN'T HELP. SO YOU ARE TELLING ME A CAR THAT DOES NOT RETURN TO CENTER IS NORMAL?? I'VE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM ONLINE, SHOULDN'T THERE BE A RECALL?? VERY VERY BAD PERFORMANCE, I WILL NOT LET MY MOTHER DRIVE THIS CAR ANYMORE BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY ISSUES, VERY DANGEROUS CAR TO DRIVE ON THE FREEWAY. *TR
