Default Steering

Anyone else notice at highway speeds above 60 mph (100 km/h) the steering gets really light, it feels like the computer is providing too much assist

Common on later model Lexus IS cars. Lots of complaints of notchy steering. It is annoying but I love the car so I deal with it.

Big difference between notchy and floaty, I’d trade my notchy for floaty in an instant.
