2013 LEXUS GS Complaints

2013 Lexus GS 350 Stuck Wiper blades; DANGER LEVEL EXTREMELY HIGH - MAY AFFECT 2013-2015 AND 2016-2020 GS MODELS When using the wipes in either automatic mode or manual speed selection they can become stuck in the rain in the up position blocking the windshield's view. This is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. Deemed a MAJOR FLAW, the wiper blades can get stuck in any position while wiping. This occurs when the wiper blades are used and it is raining. This is very hard to replicate with windshield wiper fluid. To remedy the malfunction to survive in a LIFE or DEATH moment of LIMITED VISIBILITY, the driver must quickly push the wiper lever activator up and down to reset it and or pushing in the automatic rain sensing function button. Also, when stopped at a stoplight and resuming acceleration, the rain sensor does not pick up rain at low, medium, or heavy rain and does not engage the wipers. Again, the user must re-engage the wiper system by turning it on and off again multiple times while driving over and over again, multiple times during a trip. The car should not be driven on highways at high speed during when raining or above 20 MPH.

NOTCHY STEERING FEEL AT HIGHWAY SPEED. THE STEERING EXHIBIT AN INTERMITTENT NON-BINDING, NOTCHY STEERING FEELING AND/OR STEERING WHEEL DOES NOT SELF-CENTER CONDITION WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. LIFE THREATENING. VEERS TO LEFT OR RIGHT AND NEEDS QUICK CORRECTION.

FUEL ECONOMY BECAME VERY POOR. FOLLOWING DAY HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FOR CAR RUNNING LEAN. WENT TO FILL UP CAR AT GAS STATION, AND AFTER IT WAS FILLED IT WOULD NOT START AND JUST CRANK. AFTER 5 ATTEMPTS AND THROTTLING THE GAS PEDAL THE CAR BEGAN TO SPUTTER AND FINALLY STARTED. CAR WAS THEN PARKED AFTER MOVING TO A SAFE LOCATION.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS GET STUCK IN THE UP POSITION AND DO NOT WORK. MALFUNCTIONING WIPERS, NO ERROR CODE WITH NO FIX. VERY DANGEROUS UNDER EXTREME WEATHER CONDTIONS WHERE WIPERS ARE NEEDED. NOT WHAT IS EXPECTED FROM A TOYOTA PRODUCT. I DEMAND THIS BE FIXED AS I'VE HAD MUCH OLDER CARS WITH NO ISSUES OF WIPERS MALFUNCTION. I COULD CRASH, DIE OR INJURY SOMEONE BECAUSE OF THIS FAILURE. THE CAR HAS ONLY 41,900 MILES ON IT AND THE WIPERS ARE BARELY USED. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING! IT IS NOT BECAUSE I DID SOMETHING TO THE WIPERS EITHER. I HAVE NEVER GONE THROUGH AN AUTOMATIC CAR WASH AND EVEN IF I DID THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO SUSTAIN THAT. THIS IS A LEXUS, WHERE IS THE PERFECTION?

THE STRUTS ARE FAILING (LEAKING) AND THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ACROSS THE INTERNET. ALSO, THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS STOP WORKING PERIODICALLY. AND FINALLY, THE REAR DEFROSTER STOPED WORKING. I'VE OWNED MUCH CHEAPER CARS WITH WELL OVER 100,000 MILES AND NEVER EXPERIENCED THESE PROBLEMS. THIS CAR ONLY HAS 82,000 AND WELL TAKEN CARE OF AS I HAVE ANOTHER CAR THAT I LEASE AND THE LEXUS IS USUALLY IN THE GARAGE.

AS I WAS DRIVING IN THE EARLY MORNING, I OPENED THE MOONROOF. 5 MINUTES LATER I DECIDED TO CLOSE IT BECAUSE IT GOT COLD FAST IN THE CAR. UPON CLOSING, THE MOONROOF GLASS SELF EXPLODED AS I WAS DRIVING 40-45MPH. THE GLASS WAS EVERYWHERE. I HAD TO IMMEDIATELY PULL OVER AND ASSES WHY AND WHAT HAD HAPPENED. NOTHING HIT IT, NOTHING FELL ON IT, ALL I DID WAS OPEN AND CLOSE IT AND IT EXPLODED. AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH ONLINE, I REALIZED I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. I DECIDED TO SUBMIT MY COMPLAINT AS THIS IS A VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS ISSUE.

MY AC COMPRESSOR HAS GONE OUT IN THIS CAR, IT IS ON BACKORDER THEY SAY BUT ITS BEEN TWO WEEKS IN ADDITION I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL LEXUS DEALERSHIPS INCLUDING THE MAIN LEXUS COMPANY AND THEY DONT HAVE ANY IN STOCK AND OVER 20+ ON BACK ORDER WHICH CLEARLY INDICATES THERE IS A FAULT IN THEM. I HAVE GONE 2 WEEKS WITH NO AC AND IM IN OKLAHOMA WHERE ITS 90+ DEGREE WEATHER

TODAY WHILE DRIVING DOWN A RESIDENTIAL STREET AT 30MPH, MY SUNROOF EXPLODED. UPON STOPPING AT A RED LIGHT, I OPENED MY SUNROOF VISOR A LITTLE, AND I OBSERVED MY SUNROOF WAS SHATTERED. IT WAS A LOUD POP, IN COMPARISON TO THE SOUND OF A SHOTGUN.
