2006 LEXUS GS Complaints

VEHICLE IS BURNING THROUGH OIL AT A FAST RATE. THERE ARE NO OIL LEAK MARKINGS FROM VEHICLE AFTER VEHICLE IS PARKED. THERE IS NO SMOKE FROM THE VEHICLE BUT CONTINUES TO BURN OIL AT A FAST RATE.

THE ENGINE IS GOING THROUGH ABOUT 4 QUARTS A MONTH I WAS TOLD IT WAS A RECALL ON THE MOTOR BUT I SEEM NOT TO FIND ONE

THE WIRING HARNESS INSIDE FUEL TANK THAT POWERS FUEL PUMP BURNED UP INSIDE THE TANK.

I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH MY 2006 GS300 THAT I PURCHASED NEW, I'M THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND HAVE MY CAR REGULARLY SERVICED. BACK IN 2013 I HAD MY TRANSMISSION REPLACED BY LEXUS OF WESTMINSTER AT ABOUT 80,000 MILES, I WAS SHOCKED WHEN RECENTLY WHILE DRIVING MY CAR STARTS TO PULL WHENEVER I START BRAKING WHETHER I'M GOING SLOW OR FAST, I GET AN EXTRA THUMP. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE LEXUS OF CERRITOS WHO STATED I NEED MY TRANSMISSION REPLACED AGAIN. MY CAR ONLY HAS 169,000 MILES ON IT. SO THAT WOULD MAKE THIS THE 3RD TRANSMISSION. I FEEL LIKE I HAVE A LEMON CAR. I HAVE REPLACED THE HEADLIGHTS EXCESSIVELY, I HAVE REPLACED ECU SENSORS AND EVEN TIRE PRESSURE SENSORS AS WELL AS STARTER. I DON'T BELIEVE I SHOULD HAVE TO REPLACE MY TRANSMISSION SO OFTEN, I AM NOT A HARD DRIVER AND THE LAST TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED LESS THAN 60,000 MILES AGO. I HAVE READ IN ONLINE FORUMS WHERE OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUES ON THEIR 2006 GS. I AM A PREVIOUS OWNER OF A 1988 LEXUS GS300 THAT I HAD FOR ALMOST 300,000 MILES AND NEVER REPLACED A ENGINE LET ALONE A TRANSMISSION. PLEASE INVESTIGATE I FEEL HOPELESS.

I RECEIVED A RECALL A FEW YEARS AGO PERTAINING TO THE ENGINE LEAKING OIL. THE CAR LEAKS 4 QUARTS OF FULL SYNTHETIC OIL MONTHLY. HOW DO I GO ABOUT GETTING MY VEHICLE FIXED? I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE IT TO LEXUS MCGRATH IN CHICAGO TO HAVE THEM REPAIR MY ENGINE. THANK YOU.

MY LEXUS 2006 GS300 HAS MISFIRE PROBLEM AT 108355 MILES, WITH ERROR CODES PS300, 301, AND 302. SPOKE WITH DEALERSHIP (LONGO LEXUS), AND THEY TOLD ME THE CUSTOMER SATISFACTORY PROGRAM (CSP) IS ALREADY EXPIRED TO FREE REPAIR BY LEXUS IN 2016. IF LEXUS HAS DEFECTIVE VALVE SPRING THAT CAUSED THE CARBON BUILD UP, THEN THEY SHOULD SEND US THE SAFETY RECALL LETTER, AND I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED ANY. THAT'S VERY IRRESPONSIBLE IN THEIR PART.

I HAVE PROBLEM WITH MY LEXUS GS300 129000 MILES, ENGINE RUN ROUGHLY AT IDLE AND IT BURNS OIL LIKE CRAZY, EVERY 1000 MILES I ADD ABOUT 2.5 Q OF OIL. LOOKS LIKE ITS CARBON BUILD-UP ISSUE ON INTERIOR VALVES AND COMPONENTS , I'M SCARED VEHICLE CAN STALL. DEALER DON'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THAT BECAUSE IT'S OUT OF WARRANTY ALREADY. PLEASE HELP.

I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALER TWICE FOR THE OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUES DURING THE PERIOD THEY OFFERED IT. I WAS TURNED AWAY BOTH TIMES AND ONLY AFTER THE "REPAIR PERIOD" ENDED WAS I INFORMED THAT THERE WAS ONE TO BEGIN WITH. I'VE READ ABOUT MULTIPLE PEOPLE HAVING THE RECALL PERFORMED WHO HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AS ME. MY CARE NOW NEEDS TWO TO THREE QUARTS OF OIL PER MONTH AND I WAS SCREWED OUT OF MY REPAIR. NOW WE HAVE THE AIRBAG LIGHT. I'VE READ QUITE A FEW THINGS ONLINE ABOUT TEMPORARILY REPAIRING THIS AIRBAG HARNESS MYSELF BUT THATS NOT A SOLUTION TO THE ACTUAL PROBLEM. MY CHILDREN ARE IN THIS VEHICLE DAILY AND NOT HAVING A FULLY FUNCTIONAL AIRBAG SYSTEM IS NOT AT ALL SAFE.

THE BRAKE PEDAL FEEL HAS CHANGED OVER TIME. I HAVE TO PRACTICALLY SHOVE THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR IN ORDER FOR THE BRAKES TO START TO WORK. SO WHEN I AM DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IT TAKES A LONG TIME FOR THE CAR TO START TO SLOW DOWN. THE CAR WILL NOT BRAKE IF I ONLY SLIGHT PUSH THE PEDAL, IT HAS TO BE PUSHED FAR DOWN. THE BRAKES ARE NEW AS THEY WERE JUST DONE BY THE DEALERSHIP WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE.

VEHICLE IDLING ROUGH WHEN COMING TO A STOP. CONSUMING OIL AT HIGH RATE. CAR HAS ACTUALLY STOPPED RUNNING WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE BEEN ATTEMPTING TO HAVE THIS ISSUE RESOLVED WITH THE DEALER AND LEXUS SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED.
