FRESH OEM struts!
I finally get my car back today...
(06 gs430) and was wondering if anyone has had their O.E. Struts changed? If so please give me some insight aa to whether you witnessed this problem:
The car drives normal but once in a while itll hit a bump or a curve and swerve to the left or the right.... Service guy told me its normal in new Struts but i dont buy it... To further confirm.... IT DIDNT DO THIS BEFORE! what gives folks?

gotcha, they also messed up my audio system, alongside that. I have to come back because they "FIXED" the leather on the seatbelt pillar. What they did was have a leather guy come and re-wrap the leather up, and the guy didn't give it time to cure I guess, so the leather's all warped and it doesn't stick correctly to the pillar *sigh*
I have to spend 2-3 hours tomorrow taking everything apart and diagnosing + redoing the whole audio system to see if they've messed up anything. This is the first time i'm so dissatisfied with my service center

lol@ TSB for some leather, thanks for looking out! 
It was actually lexus's fault, while they were taking my door apart I believe they accidentally hit the door panel against it and made a pinch on it. I also believe their "leather guy" ripped off the old leather and slapped on the new leather, but hte adhesive sucks because it doesn't stick together at MANY points. I forgot to check this before I left Lexus. They took apart my system and managed to break something because all the lines are in place. It seems that my system doesn't turn on and this issue that I have that says "key not detected" has come back, even after they diagnosed that it was my subwoofer amplifier. I will have to bring it back and make them start from point A again.

I even told the service guy, ARE YOU SURE it's just 2 struts? (as he said it was only the 2 rear) and he's like yahh, and i told him to go recheck it because my tire guy said it was horribly cupping on 3/4 tires. *sigh* They rechecked luckily and I got 3 struts instead of 2, I will report back after everything is done.
