2006 LEXUS GS Complaints

THE BACKING ON THE GLASS OF THE REAR-VIEW MIRROR HAS DISINTEGRATED ENCUMBERING VISIBILITY AND DIMINISHING THE MIRROR'S PURPOSE AND FUNCTION. LEXUS HAS A FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM BY REPLACING THE GLASS BUT THE DEALERS ARE NOT MAKING IT AVAILABLE. INSTEAD, THE DEALERS ARE FORCING US TO PURCHASE A NEW MIRROR AT A COST OF $1400 PLUS TAX AND THE COST OF INSTALLATION. MIRRORS ARE A BASIC COMPONENT OF ALL VEHICLES AND PROPER VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING IS A MUST. I DON'T THINK IT IS UNREASONABLE TO BELIEVE THAT THE MIRRORS SHOULD LAST THE ENTIRE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY ON A LUXURY VEHICLE. LEXUS SHOULD BE REPLACING THE GLASS AT NO COST. *TR

INSIDE REARVIEW MIRROR HAS PROGRESSIVELY DEVELOPED BLACK MARKINGS OVER PAST SEVERAL YEARS THROUGHOUT THE MIRROR OBSTRUCTING MY REARVIEW VISION IN BOTH DAYLIGHT AND AFTER DARK. VERY WELL DOCUMENTED BY OTHER LEXUS OWNERS. LEXUS HAS NOT AND IS NOT PLANNING ON ANY RECALLS BUT THIS IS A CLEAR SAFETY RISK AND HAS CAUSED SEVERAL CLOSE ENCOUNTERS AS I HAD MY VISION OBSTRUCTED AND NEARLY CAUSED SEVERAL TRAFFIC ACCIDENT DUE TO OBSTRUCTED VIEW. HAVE PRESENTED THIS CONCERN TO LEXUS NUMEROUS TIMES BUT WITHOUT ACKNOWLEDGEMENT THAT THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN BUT THE REPLACEMENT MIRROR IS $1000. I AM THE SOLE OWNER SINCE PURCHASED NEW IN 2005, GARAGED HOME AND WORK, EXTREMELY WELL MAINTAINED AT LEXUS DEALERSHIP SINCE NEW AND WITH EACH SERVICE, IT IS DISCUSSED BUT WITHOUT SUPPORT FOR REPLACEMENT. CLEARLY IS MANUFACTURER DEFECT IN PRODUCTION AND INCREASING SAFETY CONCERN. *TR

THE REAR VIEW MIRROR HAS DEVELOPED BLACK SPOTS WITHIN THE GLASS AND IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE OUT OF IT. THERE IS TSB (L-SB-0043-16} BUT NOT A RECALL... THE LEXUS BELONGED TO MY FATHER THAT PASSED AWAY AND NEVER REALLY DROVE THE CAR

ABS MODULE UNIT FAILURE DOES NOT PROVIDED PROPER PRESSURE TO BRAKE ON TIME ..VERY SLOW RESPONSE TIME TO BRAKE ...

INTERIOR REARVIEW MIRROR DEVELOPED BLACK MARKINGS THROUGHOUT MIRROR MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO VISUALIZE REARVIEW TRAFFIC. THE RESPONSE FROM LEXUS IS THAT THE GLASS ITSELF OR THE MATERIALS BEHIND THE GLASS ARE BREAKING DOWN RESULTING IN THE FUNCTIONAL LOSS OF THE REARVIEW MIRROR WHICH NOW HAS BECOME DANGEROUS FOR DRIVING. HAS BEEN PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE OVER PAST SEVERAL YEARS. LEXUS IS AWARE OF THIS DEFECT AND OCCURS IN A NUMBER OF THEIR OLDER MODELS BUT IS NOT ACCEPTING RESPONSIBILITY FOR REPAIRING OR REPLACING MIRROR WHICH COSTS THE CONSUMER ALMOST $2000 FOR A NEW REPLACEMENT WHICH IS FINANCIALLY UNOBTAINABLE FOR MANY OWNERS.

HELLO EVERYONE -- I HAVE 06 LEXUS GS300. I HAD A REBUILT TRANSMISSION, NEW VALVE SIX SOLENOIDS. BECAUSE I HAD HARSH ON THE 2 TO 1 DOWNSHIFT. THAT DIDN'T FIXED THE PROBLEM, AND THEY TOLD ME ABOUT THE ECU THE NEW COMPUTER WILL COST ME $1550 ON TOP OF THE $2200 I HAD TO PAY FOR THE TRANSMISSION AND LABOR TOO. THEIR SHOULD BE A RECALL NOTICE. HOW CAN WE ALERT LEXUS OF THIS PROBLEM AND SHIFT THE COST TO THEM FOR THEIR REPAIRS?

TRANSMISSION PROBLEM SHIFTING FROM 1 TO 3 AND DON'T SHIFT UP MORE THAN THAT ,MECHANIC ASKED TO CHANGE THE TRANSMISSION CAUSE ITS MAJOR PROBLEM FOR THIS CAR . TOO MANY PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THAT .

REAR VIEW MIRROR REFLECTION IS DEGRADING AND CAUSING POOR VISIBILITY, THEREFORE AFFECTING SAFETY AND RESALE VALUE OF VEHICLE. LEXUS ISSUED A TSB 0186-09 BUT NO RECALL. IT IS A $2000 REPAIR. WE HAVE OWNED 5 LEXUS VEHICLES, 3 PURCHASED NEW, AND ONLY THE 2006 GS 300, PURCHASED NEW, IS EXHIBITING THIS ISSUE. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN REPORTED BY OTHERS.

MY REARVIEW MIRROR IS COMPLETE DETERIORATED TO A POINT THAT IT CAN NO LONGER SEE ANY OBJECT IN THE MIRROR. IT HAS BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE THE REPLACEMENT MIRROR WILL COST MORE THAN $1800 FROM LEXUS IT IS A SAFETY DEVICE NOT LIKE RADIO OR POWER WINDOW. WE BOUGHT A LEXUS NOT PINTO. WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT!

"P2757 TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID CONTROL CIRCUIT PERFORMANCE OR STUCK OFF " WHICH CAUSES THE ENGINE TO STALL WHILE DRIVING OR WHEN PULLING IN REVERSE. VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE .
