"I leased out a 2023 RAV4 XLE premium a month ago, and at about 1000 miles I flew over a red light, because I didn't want it to get red on me. It was a road full of potholes and after that, I felt that something was off. I was assuming that it is an alignment issue, so after a few days, I saw that it was getting worse.
I went to a shop to check out what was wrong, I told the person that I assume it is an alignment issue, so he came back and said that everything in the suspension looks good but the alignment is off. He did the alignment but the vehicle still didn't ride as good.
I went back and he said that a lot of times while doing an alignment, the steering wheel is being moved a little bit, so he is going to adjust it. The second correction still didn't help on the highway at high speeds (about 50-60 and above). It was going all over the place, right and left, and I was thinking that maybe something in the suspension is off. I went to another shop where, in the past, I had success with, told them everything, but they couldn't figure out what was wrong (everything in the suspension was good). Then I said that maybe the tires are out of balance, because I was driving for a while without an alignment. They checked the tires and did the balancing. Afterwards, it ran OK but I was still feeling that it doesn't ride as good as when it was new; it was not tight enough the steering wheel
What do you think?"

You didn't use a single period, it was all one big sentence and a little hard to follow.
Why not take it to Toyota? Its a lease.
Cannot follow this monologue without proper punctuation.
What do you mean? You don't understand what I asked

@Lazerh did you proof read? Did you find it easy to follow? I doubt it.

We don't like to get on anyone's case for typos or writing style but you have posted an incredibly dense, rambling, and virtually impenetrable wall of text. For clarity's sake try some punctuation and paragraphs, or make the question sufficiently succinct that they are not needed.
I flew over a red light, because I didn't want it to get red on me.
You are a crazy driver and you ought to surrender your license.
What, exactly, is your question?
I'm not a MOD or OP, but after reading the wall of text, the excessive use of "So" indicates there's a language barrier (along with the punctuation) somewhere. I tried to edit as little as possible while still making sense of what OP tried to convey. If OP could be so kind to confirm if this is a valid interpretation, we'd all appreciate it and provide the much needed help within our limited knowledge:

Wowzers, you have a lot more patience going through that dense, tangled mass than I do!
@chucktobias - Hear, hear! Thank you @udyr for the translation.
Thank you. I was about to just give on this one.
I'm going to put your version at the top.
If you vou cannt find a problem in the suspension, then the problem might be in the steering column. Go from wheels to the steering and check for anything that has a little of movement. Remember to do it while the tires are still one the ground.
