2010 LEXUS IS Complaints

Front suspension does not have adjustable Camber. The wheels have a negative Camber that is outside of Lexus specification. This causes a very large uneven wear inside of tire, which is not noticeable from the exterior of car. Owners will be unaware, when checking the tires, that the inside of tire is worn to a point that can cause the tire to burst. Car was sent to the dealer, and they confirm that the negative camber is present and there is no fix because camber can't be adjusted. There is no warning lights or symptoms prior to failure. Vehicle suspension is not modified with non-Toyota approved equipment.

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS CRUISE CONTROL SET AND NOT SET, SLIGHT ACCELERATION VEHICLE SEEMS TO COMPLETELY LOOSE GEAR AND CONNECTION WITH DRIVE TRAIN, THE RPMS SPONTANEOUSLY JUMP TO 6500 TO 7000, MOVE THE SHIFTER AT THIS POINT TO NEUTRAL. RMPS DROP TO 1200 AND THEN PLACE THE SHIFTER TO DRIVE AND EVERYTHING REENGAGES. THIS CONDITION IS INTERMITTENT. IT HAS HAPPENED UPON ACCELERATING TO REACH HIGHWAY SPEEDS.

DEALER, ATLANTIC CITY LEXUS, ADVISES THAT IT IS VERY COSTLY TO REPAIR THE AIR BAG SYSTEM AS IT INVOLVES MILES OF WIRES. THEREFORE, I DON'T WANT TO DRIVE THE CAR.

THERE IS CURRENTLY A RECALL OF THE FUEL DELIVERY PIPE ON MY VEHICLE WHICH IS A 2010. I AM CURRENTLY IN FOR SERVICE AND THEY ARE TELLING ME THE FUEL PUMP ALSO NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AS IT IS LEAKING AS WELL. THEY ARE TELLING ME IT IS NOT UNDER RECALL AND IS ALMOST $2,4000. PER CONSUMER REPORT: TOYOTA AND LEXUS ARE RECALLING ABOUT 1.8 MILLION VEHICLES FROM THE 2013 THROUGH 2019 MODEL YEARS BECAUSE THEIR FUEL PUMP COULD STOP WORKING, WHICH COULD LEAD TO A SUDDEN STALL OR HESITATION WHILE DRIVING. THE PROBLEM INCREASES THE RISK OF A CRASH, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TRAVELING AT A HIGH SPEED. SOME OF THESE VEHICLES ARE BEING ADDED TO AN EXISTING RECALL THAT WAS ALREADY ANNOUNCED IN JANUARY. I WOULD LIKE THIS LOOKED INTO FURTHER AS THERE IS A CORRELATION IN 2013-2019 MODELS. *TR

THE CAR WAS STOPPED ABOUT TO BE PUT INTO PARK AND THEN IT REVVED UP ON IT'S OWN AND THE BRAKES WERE PRESSED BUT THE CAR SPED UP UNTIL IT CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. *TR

ISFS YEAR MODELS 2008-2014 ARE AFFECTED THE VALLEY PLATE LEAK DUE TO THE FACT THAT TOYOTA/LEXUS UTILIZED THE IMPROPER SEALANT AND USED THE IMPROPER AMOUNT, LEADING TO THE HEAT EXCHANGER LEAKING COOLANT ONCE THE ORIGINAL, INADEQUATE SEALANT BEGINS TO DISINTEGRATE. THIS COULD CAUSE A CONDITION WHERE THE ENGINE COULD FAIL AND SOMEONE COULD GET HURT. FURTHERMORE, ALL ISFS WILL EVENTUALLY HAVE A CRACKED RH MANIFOLD ON THE #8 RUNNER. THIS CAN CAUSE A FIRE HAZARD IN ADDITION TO CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING. *TR

KNOWN BY LEXUS AS A COMMON FAILURE IN THE 2UR ENGINE IS THE VALLEY PLATE COOLANT LEAK. THIS IS A FAILURE THAT THE MAJORITY OF OWNERS IN THE FORUMS HAVE REPORTED AS WELL AS MY PERSONAL VEHICLE EXPERIENCING. CAN HAPPEN AS FEW AS 50K MILES. COMMON COST FOR REPAIR TO THE OWNER IS BETWEEN $2000 AND $3000. MINE HAS HAPPENED EVEN AFTER METICULOUS MAINTENANCE. *TR

TAKATA RECALL CAN NOT GET AN APPOINTMENT TO REPLACE AIR BAG AT BAY RIDGE LEXUS OF BROOKLYN. CALLED 5 TIMES TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT AND CUSTOMER SERVICE KEEPS TLLING ME THAT THEY WILL CALL BACK BUT NEVER CALLED.

THIS REGARDING 2010 LEXUS IS250 AND WE OWNED ONE. THIS VEHICLE HAS PROBLEM WITH DASHBOARD GETTING STICKY IT IS KIND OF MELTING DUE TO HEAT AND HUMIDITY. AND LEXUS IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. BUT THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF IS BECAUSE OF STICKY DASHBOARD IT RELEASES OILY FUME AND IT GOES ON TO WINDSHIELD AND MAKES IT FOGGY. THIS IS ON GOING PROBLEM. MY SON IS DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND ACCORDING TO HIM IS IN THE LONG-DISTANCE DRIVING HE HAS TO PULL OVER MULTIPLE TIME TO CLEAN WINDSHIELD . JUST BECAUSE OF OUR CAR HAS SALVAGE TITLE LEXUS WILL NOT PAY OR REPLACE THIS STICKY DASHBOARD. HAVING A SALVAGE TITLE DOES NOT MEAN CAR IS NOT ON THE ROAD AND NO-ONE BEHIND THE DRIVER SEAT.. I WOULD REQUEST YOU TO LOOK IN TO THIS MATTER. THIS IS LIFE AND DEATH SAFETY CONCERNS TO US. THANKS

THE COOLANT VALLEY PLATE SEAL ON MANY 2008-2014 LEXUS IS F MODELS FAIL PREMATURELY CAUSING LOSS OF COOLANT AND CAUSE DAMAGE. I WAS CHANGING THE OIL ON MY 2010 IS F WHEN I NOTICED THE PINK COOLANT ALL OVER MY TRANSMISSION AND I HAVE TO TOP MY COOLANT OFF WEEKLY SO I DON'T DAMAGE MY VEHICLE. LEXUS HAS MANY CASES OF THIS DOCUMENTED BUT WONT SAY THAT ITS AN ISSUE.
