I have a 2002 Lexus Truck RX 300 AWD v6.3.0L the car has started to sway and no one seem to know why it is doing that. Each shop that I have taken it to says is pulling from the rear. When I am driving I feel like I am on a boat and I am about t loose control of the car. Why do you think this is happening. Thank you

Are tires under inflated? Have you checked for worn or broken sway bar bushings? Is the vehicle properly aligned?

Also, have the steering components been checked to see if there is excessive play as well as the wheel bearings?
