the tsb is talking about "drifting and pulling" . It is for both toyota and scion. Also part of that tsb talked about that that the steering wheel on toyotas and scions weren't put on straight by the factory. It requires pulling off the steering wheel and putting it on straight. This is one of many fixes, but from what I've seen out there, a lot of scion owners are putting up with steering wheels that are not straight. The dealer just passes it off as "road crown". When the road is almost completely perfect. Not all Scions have this, but a lot do have it.

Also, if you hit a curb, of COURSE your wheel alignment would be off! Could've bent a wheel too!

the tsb you should look for covers a wide range of years.

as opposed to most people, who drive with no hands
