2010 LEXUS HS Complaints

2010 LEXUS HS 250H START MALFUNCTION, ALL LIGHTS FLICKERING THEN NOTHING. ATTEMPTED JUMPING THE 12V BATTERY OFF BUT THAT DID NOT WORK, ATTEMPTED REPLACING KEY FOB BATTERY AND THAT DID NOT WORK. NOW THERE IS NO LIGHTS OR ELECTRICITY THE ONLY LIGHTS THAT FLICKER ARE THE P LIGHT WHICH STROBES SLIGHTLY AND WHEN THE BRAKE IS PLAYED WITH (DEPRESSED AND LET OUT SEVERAL TIMES) I CAN GET THE LIGHT "KEY NOT DETECTED" AND THE "TRIANGLE WITH THE !" TO COME ON. THEN WHEN I HOLD FOB TO THE POWER BUTTON IT WILL SAY, "DEPRESS BRAKE AND PUSH POWER BUTTON TO START CAR" HOWEVER THAT DOES NOT WORK. CAR WAS STATIONARY IN PARK IN GARAGE AND HAD BEEN DRIVEN NOT EVEN 45 MINUTES PRIOR.

PULLING IN TO A PARKING SPOT, I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE BRAKES FAILED CAUSING THE CAR TO DRIVE THROUGH A FENCE, SMALL BUSH AND AN OUTDOOR STAIRCASE. MY SPEED WAS UNDER 10 MILES AN HOUR.

TAKATA RECALL: I'VE HAD 2 INCIDENTS WHERE ALL FOUR OF MY CAR WINDOWS WERE DOWN. ALSO MY MOONROOF WINDOW WAS OPEN. I ASSUME THEY WENT DOWN BY THEMSELVES. THE CAR WAS PARKED. I'D GO OUT TO MY CAR. MY CAR WAS LOCKED. I ALWAYS LOCK IT AND NOTHING APPEARED TO BE STOLEN OR BROKEN. THE FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED AROUND THE TIME THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE CAR FOR POTENTIAL HYBRID SYSTEM FAILURE. I DIDN'T KNOW IF IT HAD TO DO SOMETHING WITH THAT BUT I TOOK IT INTO A LEXUS DEALERSHIP TO GET IT FIXED FOR THE RECALL. IT DIDN'T HAPPEN AFTER THAT AGAIN UNTIL DECEMBER OF 2018. SO BOTH TIMES I HAD LOCKED MY CAR, CAME BACK TO MY CAR EVENTUALLY, AND SAW MY WINDOWS WERE DOWN. DIFFERENT HEIGHTS. NOTHING WAS TAKEN OR BROKEN.

ADDING DOCUMENTS PROVIDED BY THE MECHANIC, AND PICTURE ON THE ERROR. LOOKS LIKE THE SAME ISSUE BUT DEALER WILL NOT RECOGNIZE THIS RECALL FOR THE VIN NUMBER. PLEASE ASSIST

TOOK MY CAR TO THE MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON ABS (REFLASH SOFTWARE) AND BREAK BOOSTER PUMP REPLACEMENT. I HAVE LOST THE HYDRAULIC PRESSURE ON THE BREAKS AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE. DEALER HAS SAME ISSUE WITH OTHER VEHICLES EXCEPT OF MINE. HOW DO I GET MY VIN NUMBER CHECKED AND ADDED TO THE RECALL? PLEASE ASSIST. THANK YOU.

THE PASSENGER AND DRIVERS SIDE MIRRORS BOTH FAILED WITHIN A YEAR OF EACH OTHER. BOTH MIRRORS BEGAN TO MOVE EXCESSIVELY WHILE DRIVING, RENDERING THEM USELESS. BOTH MIRRORS ARE CAPABLE OF BEING MANUALLY FOLDED, THE MECHANISM THAT HOLDS THEM FIRM WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION BROKE.

I PURCHASED A 2010 HS 250H LEXUS IN AUG 8, 2016. I RECENTLY FOUND OUT THAT IT HAS BEEN RECALLED 7 TIMES WITH SERIOUS UNDER THE HOOD ISSUES AND WAS TOLD THE ONLY ONE OUTSTANDING THE ONE I STUMBLED UPON DUE TO RESEARCH. THIS CAR HAS RUINED MY LIFE.IT HAS NEEDED ALL SORT OF REPAIRS SINCE I PURCHASED IT. MOST OF THE TIME IT HAS HAD TO JUST SIT IN THE YARD DUE TO THE FACT THAT I WAS AND STILL IS, AFRAID TO DRIVE IT.. IT STARTED JUST A FEW DAYS AFTER MY DEALER WARRANTY HAD RUN OUT. IT CUTS OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, LOSING THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE,ETC. ONE DAY DURING WORK TRAFFIC IT CUT OFF ON ME AND TRAFFIC STAYED BACKED UP FOR MILES BEFORE I COULD CALL AND PAY FOR A TOW TRUCK. IN FACT, NOWADAYS, THAT'S BEEN THE ONLY WAY I CAN GET IT TO AND FROM THE REPAIR SHOP. NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT I SOCKED MUCH OF MY SAVINGS INTO THIS CAR BECAUSE I HAD JUST RECENTLY RECEIVED MY TEACHING CERTIFICATION AND EXPECTED TO BE WORKING FULL TIME AND WOULD HAVE NO PROBLEMS. I'VE RECEIVED NUMEROUS OFFERS TO APPLY FOR NUMEROUS TEACHING POSITIONS BUT HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO APPLY DUE TO THE LACK OF TRANSPORTATION. I HAVE A LOAN AND INSURANCE THAT HAD TO BE MAINTAINED. I ALSO HAVE A MORTGAGE THAT I EXPECTED TO BE ABLE TO PAY FOR DUE TO MY NEWLY ACQUIRED CERTIFICATION AND OBTAINING A DEPENDABLE FORM OF TRANSPORTATION BECAME A NECCESITY. AT THIS POINT I HAVE HAD TO MOVE IN WITH RELATIVES BECAUSE I CAN NO LONGER AFFORD THE HOUSE AND DUE TO CONTINUOUS CAR REPAIR COST, MAY EVEN BE LOSING THE NON OPERATING 2010 LEXUS HS250H, THAT I HAVE BASICALLY NEVER BEEN ABLE UTILIZE FOR A BETTER LIFE FOR MYSELF. THE LEXUS DEALER WHO NOW HAS THE CAR HAS GIVEN ME A LOANER. I THINK THAT DRIVING THE CAR FOR EIGHT YEARS WITH THIS LAST TWO RECALLS, HAS DESTROYED IT.LIES HAVE BEEN TOLD BECAUSE A RECALL DATED 8/11/2016, 3 DAYS AFTER MY PURCHASE CONTRACT, AND I NEVER RECEIVED ANY NOTICE OF THIS RECALL NON WORK DONE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 LEXUS HS 250 HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A LOSS OF ENGINE POWER AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO LEXUS OF MELBOURNE (6927 BROMLEY DR., MELBOURNE, FL 32940) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HYBRID TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V619000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 81,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

AS MY WIFE WAS DRIVING CAR, SHE RECEIVED (4) - LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD ABOUT BREAK AND ABS SYSTEM. SHE WAS DRIVING ON 610S IN HOUSTON, TEXAS. THEN ALL OF SUDDEN SHE WAS FEELING BREAK WAS NOT WORKING AS SHOULD AND RECEIVING NOISE LIKE TURBINE RUNNING. IT WAS VACUUM FROM BREAK. WE TOOK CAR TO CLEAR LAKE LEXUS DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. THEY RUN COMPUTER AND FOUND CODE C1391/89 ACCUMULATOR LEAK MALFUNCTION. ACCUMULATOR PRESSURE SENSOR INPUT DOES NOT INCREASE BEFORE BREAKING OR WHILE THE PUMP MOTOR IS OPERATING. ACCUMULATOR PRESSURE SENSOR INPUT REDUCTION RATE EXCEEDS THE SPECIFICATION BEFORE BRAKING AND WHILE THE PUMP MOTOR IS NOT OPERATING. THE DEALERSHIP QUOTED FOR REPAIR $3400 APPROX. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AND/OR WARRANTY SINCE DEFECTIVE PART. THE CAR HAS ONLY 82K MILEAGE AND IN VERY GOOD CONDITION.
