2010 LEXUS GX Complaints

I AM UNABLE TO USE MY CAR AS NEEDED DUE TO THIS RECALL. IT HAS CREATED A HARDSHIP FOR ME.

MY VEHICLE IS AFFECTED BY THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL. NO REMEDY HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AND I CAN GET NO INFORMATION REGARDING WHEN A REMEDY IS EXPECTED. I DRIVE THIS VEHICLE WITH INFANT AND YOUNG CHILDREN AND I AM VERY DISTRESSED ABOUT THE LIFE THREATENING PROBLEM AND THE LACK OF INFORMATION OR APPARENT PLAN TO REMEDY THE LIFE THREATENING CONDITION.

AFTER 10 MONTHS SINCE THE AIRBAG RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED THERE ARE STILL NO UPDATES ON WHEN MY VEHICLE WILL BE REPAIRED FROM THE MANUFACTURE. CONSIDERING THE SEVERITY OF THE ISSUE, MORE SHOULD BE DONE TO SPEED UP THE PROCESS!

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND SEVERAL OTHER LIGHTS CAME ON IN MY VEHICLE. ONCE THIS HAPPENS THE VEHICLE GOES INTO SAFE MODE AND PROHIBITS YOU FROM DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEEDS. I WENT OFF THE ROAD AS I ENTERED THE FREEWAY TO AVOID A SEMI BECAUSE I COULD NOT ACCELARATE. I DISCOVERED THIS SAME ISSUE HAS BEEN FOUND ON TOYOTA MODELS HOWEVER LEXUS HAS NOT SENT OUT NOTICES AND WILL NOT COVER. THERE IS A REDESIGN FOR THIS AIR INJECTION PUMP DUE TO THE INFORMATION BELOW. TOYOTA HAS RECEIVED REPORTS OF CUSTOMER CONCERNS REGARDING THE ILLUMINATION OF THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT (MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT) DUE TO MOISTURE/WATER IN THE AIR INJECTION PUMPS AND/OR AIR SWITCHING VALVES IN THE ENGINES OF A NUMBER OF THESE VEHICLES. TO ASSIST DEALER IN THE DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR OF THESE VEHICLES A TSB HAS BEEN RELEASED. SOME OF THE VEHICLES COVERED BY THIS TSB MAY BE OUTSIDE OF THE TOYOTA NEW VEHICLE LIMITED POWERTRAIN WARRANTY DUE TO AGE AND/OR MILEAGE. TO ASSURE CUSTOMERS THAT WE STAND BEHIND OUR PRODUCT, WE ARE OFFERING A WARRANTY EXTENSION ON THE AIR INJECTION PUMPS AND AIR SWITCHING VALVES ON 2007 TO 2010 TUNDRA AND 2008 TO 2010 SEQUOIA VEHICLES.

OWNER NOTIFICATION LETTER MAILING DATE THE OWNER NOTIFICATION WILL COMMENCE IN LATE OCTOBER, 2011.

GOING AROUND A TRAFFIC CIRCLE THE BACK OF THE TRUCK SLIDES AWAY AND STEERING IS PROBLEMATIC. IT'S A VERY DISCONCERTING FEELING. I KEEP HEARING A KNOCKING SOUND FROM THE UNDERSIDE EVEN OVER SMALL BUMPS OR ROUGH ROAD. *TR

SUNROOF EXPLODED AND RAINED PIECES OF GLASS INTO CAR WHILE DRIVING DOWN HIGHWAY: 1 - WAS NOT STRUCK BY ROCK. THERE WERE NO CARS WITHIN 2 MILES EITHER DIRECTION. 2 - SOUNDED LIKE A LOUD "POP." A LOUD, BUT DULL NOISE - NOT A SHARP SOUND LIKE SOMETHING STRIKING CAR. 3 - THERE IS A HOLE IN THE CENTER OF THE SUNROOF ABOUT 4X8 INCHES WITH THE BROKEN GLASS AROUND THE EDGES POINTING UP - LOOKS LIKE IT EXPLODED UPWARD. THE REST OF THE SUNROOF IS NOW CRACKED SAFETY GLASS. 4 - ROAD WAS SMOOTH HIGHWAY, TEMPERATURE WAS ABOUT 85F, ALL WINDOWS ON CAR WERE CLOSED WITH AC ON. *TR

EVERY TIME WHEN I APPLY BRAKE I HEAR "SQUEAKING" NOISE FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL, AS PER LEXUS THIS IS NORMAL NOISE AND NOTHING THEY CAN DO. I EVEN OPENED A CASE FOR LEXUS HEADQUARTER BUT NO LUCK. *TR
