I am not sure exactly what happened but their was indeed an internal systems failure of some sort that definitely needs to be resolved and the public needs to be made aware of. I lost control of my vehicle do to some circumstance beyond my control and I was nearly killed an a father and son as well. I hope the government gets to the bottom of this and makes all humans aware of this threat to our way of life and human's lifes in general. Regardless I was driving and minding my own business and causing no harm to anyone when I lost control of my vehicle and it swerved to the right in an intersection causing an accident. Please utilize our tax money properly and make sure the people responsible for this are held accountable in accordance with the law and make the public aware of who they are. I thank you for your assistance in making sure humans and businesses are held accountable under the law of the laws of the country in relations to vehicle safety.

Car drifts toward the left thus causes constant correction especially at highway speeds of 30 and above. Controlling this is very tiring and more importantly can cause an accident with the car in the other lane. With this distraction it leaves one not giving other safety observations as much time to monitor.. Toyota has been aware of this in older model years but has failed to address it since not enough owners cars or affected by this drifting or simply thru apathy. As I understand it, it is caused by a defective ecu unit that is part of the steering unit. My prediction is that nothing will come out of this complaints as with other owners have reported on google.
