There is a fix for this. I called Lexus corporate and they had their service mgr. do something to the alignment. The car drove straight. They gave me one new original Bridgestone tire. I put it on the front, with the spare, and the car drives straight. Call Lexus.

no, it's was the alignment. Lexus knows of the problem. Keep after them until they fix it.

i see...if you read that TSB, if everything is in spec, they will adjust the caster to make the steer the other way. Prob with that is if over done, your tire will wear out unevenly.
