I drive a ls430 with a known recall for my make and model . I have contact the local dealer to check up on it but they said its not concerning my car. Why not? Im having a jerky transmission issue as they describe but its not under recall. Its kind of fishy?

Do you drive a 2004 LEXUS LS 430?

Just because a car has been recalled does not mean it is not a reliable car. Millions of cars get recalled every year. Recalls often involve problems that are rare but could cause a serious problem if they occur. So the risk to any given driver is often remote, even though there may be a few high-profile incidents traced to the problem.
