I don't see any errors on my g sensors and when I'm going straight the dot is dead in the center. When I turn left/right, speed up/brake........the dot moves accordingly in the right direction.

It’s not the dot that has issue it is the steering wheel amount above it that looks like an arch. Also, Lexus confirmed that what they did for my vehicle was the procedure lobuxracer said. So any other ideas?Thanks.
So there is one other thing they should have checked (again, it's in the manual), and it is the disparity in thread length left to right in the steering rack. See diagram and discussion points below:

They knew the toe was off during the alignment and told me it was adjusted, but the steering wheel was not centered so they centered it . This caused the gforce steering amount to be off.

Ok. All looks like is ok on mine after my Firestone alignment (before and after). The cone shaped diagram in the center moves accordingly when I turn left/right/brake/accelerate. All good.
