2006 LEXUS GS300 Complaints

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.

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.

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.

FOR MODEL YEAR 2006 AND 2007 IN THE USA THERE IS NO SIDE INDICATORS TO LET OTHER DRIVERS KNOW YOUR GONNA MAKE A TURN. IN JAPAN THERE WAS/IS FENDER INDICATORS NOT SURE IF THEY FUNCTION AS SIGNAL INDICATORS HOWEVER WERE REMOVED OR NOT INCLUDED IN THE USA RELEASE. I WAS ALMOST BLIND SIDED ON THE FREEWAY A FEW DAYS AGO CAUSE THE DRIVER TO MY RIGHT DIDN'T/COULDN'T SEE MY SIGNAL INDICATORS. OTHER DRIVERS HAVE TO BE DIRECTLY BEHIND OR DIRECTLY IN FRONT TO SEE THE TURN INDICATORS. FOR MODEL YEAR 2008 TO 2011 IDENTICAL BODY AND STYLE ONLY WITH THE ADDITION OF TURN SIGNAL LIGHTS ON THE REAR VIEW MIRRORS THAT HAVE A FULL 180 DEGREE VISIBILITY.

THIS MORNING, 3/14/2017, WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ON A MULTI-LANE CITY STREET, WITHOUT ANY WARNING AT ALL, I SUDDENLY LOST THE POWER STEERING. LITERALLY FROM ONE SECOND TO THE NEXT IT WAS GONE. THANKFULLY I WAS SLOWING DOWN, MOVING INTO A TURN LANE SO I WAS ONLY MOVING ABOUT 10 MPH. IT WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO MAKE IT TO THE NEAREST PARKING LOT.

FAULTY ECU COMPUTER RESULTING IN HARD JERK WHEN SHIFTING BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND GEAR. THE ENGINE REPAIR UNIT GOES BAD AFTER 100,000 MILES. MULTIPLE VEHICLES REPORTED THE ISSUE AFTER EXPERIENCING FUEL INDUCTION PROBLEMS AND OIL LOSS RELATED TO BAD .GASKETS. CAR STARTED JERKING ON THE HIGHWAY CAUSE A REAR END BUMPER COLLISION WHILE INTRAFFIC.

I'M HAVING SERIOUS PROBLEMS WITH MY HEADLIGHTS GOING OUT INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING. ABOUT 5 MINUTES AFTER I TURN THEM ON, USUALLY MY PASSENGER HEADLIGHT GOES OUT FIRST, THEN ABOUT FIVE TO TEN MINUTES LATER, THE DRIVER HEADLIGHT LIGHT GOES OUT. IT'S STRANGE, SOMETIMES ONLY ONE GOES OUT, AND OTHER TIMES THEY BOTH GO OUT. THE PROBLEM IS, IT BECOMES A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WHEN THEY GO OUT, BECAUSE MOST TIMES I AM COMPLETELY UNAWARE UNTIL SOMEONE ON THE ROAD GETS MY ATTENTION AND TELLS ME, OR I'M CONSTANTLY TURNING MY HEADLIGHTS OFF AND ON, (WHICH SEEMS TO BE THE TEMPORARY FIX). THE PROBLEM WITH THAT THOUGH IS I'M CONSTANTLY FLASHING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME TURNING MY LIGHTS OF AND ON. CLEARLY THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE HERE, SOME KIND OF SHORT OR SOMETHING, ESPECIALLY WHEN EVERY SINGLE DAY I SEE OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD, JUST LIKE MINE, HAVING THE SAME ISSUE...DRIVING AROUND WITH ONE LIGHT ON AND ONE LIGHT OFF. IT'S RIDICULOUS. IT'S DANGEROUS! I COMMUTE 2 HOURS (ROUND TRIP) EVERYDAY ON THE HIGHWAY FOR WORK AND MY CHILD'S SCHOOL, AND IT'S DARK IN THE MORNING WHEN WE LEAVE HOME AND DARK IN THE EVENING ON OUR WAY HOME. IT'S EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY ON FOG DAYS AND RAINY DAYS LIKE TODAY. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! *TR
