Check VSC message
well I just got the car back from the dealer and it ended up being a complete failure of fuel injector #2. apparently it got exposed some how and it caused it to get ruined. the car runs beautiful again and I am very happy to have a fixed car in a very quick turn around time. Thankfully my IS350 is still quieter in the motor then my wife's IS250.

Check VSC came on because VSC is automatically disabled whenever the check engine light is on. Fix the check engine light and check VSC will go away. Check engine light can come on for any number of reasons. First thing I'd check is to make sure the gas cap is tight, as this is a VERY common reason for a check engine light. If it's okay, then I'd recommend having the dealer read the trouble code. A bent wheel should not cause the check engine light to come on.
I have the smae issue, the check engine light is on. I checked the gas cap and it was loose, I removed it and tightend it back on. Will the light eventualy go off, or do I need to have it reset?

If it was caused by a loose gas cap, and you tightened the cap, the light will go off the next time the car runs the evaporative emissions diagnostic, which it ought to do within a few reasonable length drives.
I left my car sitting for a week outside (pretty cold, temps in the 40s). When I went to start it up, I got check engine plus + check VSC. I drove it for a few feet and it felt like it was limping (no power). I stopped the car, restarted it, and everything was fine... anyone know what the issue could have been? No problems up until this point.
