2007 LEXUS IS Complaints

MY DASH HAS BEEN MELTING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW, IT DOESN'T MATTER IF I USE SOMETHING TO BLOCK OUT THE SUN. NOT ONLY IS THE DASH MELTING, IT IS BREAKING OFF IN CHUNKS IN CERTAIN AREAS. WHEN YOU TOUCH IT, IT IS STICKY AND LEAVES A PRINT OF WHATEVER TOUCHED IT. I AM NOT ABLE TO CLEAN IT AND IT LEAVES A BAD GLARE FROM THE SUN WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING. THIS ISN'T THE FIRST CASE I HAVE READ ABOUT THIS - WHAT IS GOING TO BE DONE, IF ANYTHING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 LEXUS IS 250. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A PROGRESSING FAILURE FOR YEARS IN WHICH THERE WERE STRONG FUMES OF FUEL EMITTING INTO THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBERS: 11V029000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE), 14V647000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE) AND WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHAT PARTS WERE REPLACED BY THE DEALER. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS A POTENTIAL FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR LEAK AND THAT THE FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED BUT THE DEALER DID NOT REPLACE THE PART. THE MECHANIC INDICATED THE SEALING PROPERTY OF THE GASKET WAS RESEALED NEAR THE THE FUEL DELIVERY PIPE. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE FAILURE WAS ONLY SEALED AND THAT THE FUEL DELIVERY PIPE AND THE FUEL PRESSURE SENSORS WERE NOT REPLACED. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT WITHIN A WEEK OF THE REPAIR THE SRONG FUMES OF FUEL CONTINUED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED FROM THE RECALLS AND THE CONTACT WAS WAITING FOR A RESPONSE FROM THE MANUFACTURER TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

AIR BAGS STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. THE DEALER, LEXUS, REFUSES TO MAKE REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS NEVER INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT......UPDATED 12/03/15 *BF UPDATED 10/17/2017*CN

THE AUX CABLE TO PLUG A 3.5MM JACK FROM AUDIO HEADPHONE / SPEAKER CABLE DOES NOT WORK. IT PLAYS MUSIC ONLY IN THE FRONT RIGHT DOOR SPEAKER, DOES NOT PLAY ANYWHERE ELSE. ALL OF THE SPEAKERS WORK FINE WHEN ON RADIO OR CD MODE BUT THE AUX CABLE SEEMS TO BE MALFUNCTIONING. I HAVE SEARCHED THIS PROBLEM ONLINE AND SPOKEN WITH OTHERS WHO HAVE THE SAME MODEL OF LEXUS (IS350 2007). IT IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE. IT WOULD BE GREAT TO GET THIS FIXED. THANK YOU. *TR

I STARTED NOTICING THAT MY DASHBOARD AND ALL FOUR DOOR PANELS ARE MELTING AND ITS VERY STICKY. WHILE DRIVING THE GLARE GETS REALLY BAD REFLECTING ONTO THE WINDSHIELD THAT ITS HARD TO SEE. I CAN'T LEAN MY ARM ON MY DOOR BECAUSE ITS REALLY STICKY AND IT LEAVES A FILM ON MY ARM. MY DASHBOARD IS ALSO CRACKING DUE TO THIS MELTING. I HAVE NOT NOTICED A RECALL ON IT BUT I HAVE SPOKE TO OTHERS THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO AND ALSO SEEING THE SAME ONLINE WITH OTHER LEXUS/TOYOTA OWNERS. *TR

VSC LIGHT COMES ON RANDOMLY AND SOMETIMES STAYS ON FOR DAYS. ABS LIGHT COMES ON WITH IT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. VERY UNSAFE WHEN IT HAPPENS I HAVE BEEN TURNING AND THE TRACTION WILL CUT OUT. BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE WE DO NOT DRIVE THE CAR IN THE RAIN. *TR

WENT INTO A GROCERY STORE WHEN I CAME BACK 5 MINUTES LATER I TURNED ON THE CAR AND WENT TO OUCH THE NAVIGATION SCREEN WHEN IT FIRST DID NOT WORK. HAS NOT WORKED EVER SINCE MANY OTHERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

STARTED THE CAR THIS MORNING 3/29/15 AND AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON. DROVE TO STORE AND CAME BACK LIGHT STILL ON. GOT HOME LIGHT STILL ON. WENT TO AUTO SHOP GAVE ME A CODE OF B1861 SRS DRIVER SIDE KNEE AIR BAG. SOUNDS VERY DANGEROUS AND IM AFRAID THAT THE AIR BAG WONT DEPLOY DURING AN ACCIDENT......UPDATED 12/03/15 *BF

THE VEHICLE DASHBOARD AND DOORS MATERIALS ARE MELTED/STICKY/GLOSSY, CANNOT BE TOUCHED OR EVEN CLEAN, MY MAIN CONCERN IS THE AIRBAG. *TR

I LOST POWER STEERING AND VERY HARD TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. PS LIGHT IS CAME ON THE DASH. *TR
