Default VGRS - Anyone have issues with it?

I had the TSB done about a year ago? and as of recent it seems to go off a lot. VGRS and the red triangle come on. I read its nothing to worry about and you can still drive the car. Most common is moving slow with large turns (more common in parking lots) when it trips and lights up the dashboard. I goggled and see this was a common issue in the LS.

Anyone else having any issues after the TSB was done?

I was surprised the GS wasn't affected by the LS VGRS recall. Perhaps it is. Can you replicate it again? Would be good to shoot a video and post to YouTube for us and for Lexus.

There was a TSB for my GS. I think it was called "steering service" ?? When I took the car in for the rear caliper TSB and the Fuel Rail TSB. My car didnt fall under the Fuel Rail but they said there was a TSB for the steering and replaced something. I did have the VGRS go off a few times prior to the service. Maybe what ever they replaced went bad??

I can shoot some video in a parking lot and post it later.
