2014 GS 350 steering problem

Exactly! Lexus ignores this dangerous issue. I keep reading it's the steering rack but after years of dealing with it I now think it is the power steering module. You can buy a used one for $150 or get a new one from Lexus FOR $705. I don't take the Lexus on long trips.

Exact same on my 2015 FSport as well. After about 4 hours of high way driving it made that sticking effect. Never happens on street driving. What is interesting during the 9 hours road trip after 4 hours it started to give me same issue about every 1 to 2 hours

Checking to see if anyone has experienced a similar issue with their GS 350? I saw a prior thread on this from last year and it doesn't look like those members are still in the forum. I've sent a couple of private messages, but haven't received a response.
Simply put, the steering on my GS seems to stick in position at freeway speeds. The car is the base model and does not have LKA. I purchased it from Lexus Glendale in 2017 with 30k miles on it. It was a lease turn in and was in immaculate condition. It is CPO. The typical scenario - I'm driving about 65 on a smooth freeway and the steering seems to stick in position - as I try to move to the left within my lane, the steering wheel resists for a second or two, then seems to catch up and complies. It's a bit unnerving as you can imagine for that brief moment. I took it to my local Lexus dealer (Ontario, CA) about a year ago and they were not able to duplicate. I've tolerated it since as I don't drive the freeways that often, but am now trying to find a resolution once more. The car is back at Ontario Lexus and I'm waiting for their diagnosis. Please let me know if you've experience something different - and if you were able to find a solution. Thanks!
