| I have this car for about 3 years now. i complain about the noise on my steering while i'm turning the steering or driving. i called the manufacturer if there was a recall or defect on my car and they ask me to bring my car to any dealership to diagnose the car and the result is to change the steering column assembly and my factory warranty expires at 60k miles. my concern is why they recalled the other cars steering problem which i have the same problem in my car. every time i leave a message to the manufacturer they always tells me they forward my request to the national headquarters. i haven't receive any calls or message from them since march 2012 and the noise on my steering is getting worst and the cost of repair is almost 2k. *tr | |||

| Toyota venza 2009 constantly pulls to the left. when driving on a bumpy road it will drift to either side and when i step on the brakes, it drifts as well. dealerships say it's following crown of the road, but it doesn't-it veers off the road. when taking a right turn, the steering is stiff and turns more to the left than right. i have visited 3 dealerships with no resolution. struggling to keep car on the road and was very dangerous during a recent snow storm between avoiding to hit other cars and veering off the road. i have called toyota hotline and they insist there's no problem. this car is dangerous to drive. | |||
