Damn. If that's the case you should have some serious burn marks on your rotor from it overheating where the caliper was not releasing. Are they fixing it for you?

EYECON7-I feel your pain man. I did all the same mods/fixes, heard similar "fixes" from the Lex dealership. It's generally NOT as simple as wheels, tires not ballanced or rotors out of round. My dealer ship said it was my brand new yokahama's "out of round". Bull****. I put a new set of 20's with new Falkens, got it balanced at three different palces-same crazy shake. Then they said it was my rotors. I put new Brembo drilled rotors all around-same crazy shake. Steering pretensioner (helped a little, but doesn't take away the shake, it just feel's lower on the car-you don't feel it as bad in the wheel, but your *** still shakes), outer tie rod ends, steering rack Daizen bushings, lower ball joints, alignments, etc. I'm going to try to replace the wheel bearings, and casters (haven't touched them yet). I don't know what else it could be. This should be a recalled model for sure due to everyone having this issue.
