2006 LEXUS IS Complaints

THE INSIDE PANELS OF THE DOORS ARE ALL NICKED UP WITH DEEP GOUGES. WHEN WE HAVE HOT WEATHER IT GETS STICKY AND SOFT AND ANY NICK OR BUMP SHOWS UP. JUST LIKE THE DASH BOARDS. I HAVE NO KIDS OR PETS IN THE CAR, I AM THE ONLY ADULT DRIVES AND IT LOOKS AWEFUL.

WHEN DRIVING THE THE VSC AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. WHEN I'I WAS DRIVING, MY VEHICLE GOT STUCK IN 3RD GEAR ON THE FREEWAY. I HAD TO SLOW DOWN ABRUPTLY BECAUSE MY RPM'S WERE HIGH DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT WAS STUCK IN 3RD GEAR. I DIDNT WANT TO BLOW OUT MY ENGINE DUE TO HIGH RPM'S AND I SLOWED DOWN SUDDENLY. I ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS REASON.

SPECKLED/SCRATCHED REAR VIEW MIRROR. VISIBILITY ON THE REAR VIEW MIRROR IS BECOMING DIFFICULT DUE TO SCRATCHES AND SPOTS THAT JUST CAME BY ITSELF AS TIME HAS PASSED. THIS ISSUE IS BECOMING A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

I WAS DRIVING BACK TO LOS ANGELES FROM A TRIP TO SAN FRANCISCO, HALF WAY TO LOS ANGELES. MY TRANSMISSION BREAKS DOWN . I WAS GOING AT ABOUT 90+MPH , SO I IMMEDIATELY HAD TO GET TO THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY , IT WAS DEFINITELY DANGEROUS AND THE OUTCOME COULD OF BEEN WORSE.

THIS IS IN REGARDS TO DASHBOARD STICKINESS, CRACKING AND WINDSHIELD GLARE/REFLECTION. ALSO THE DOOR PANELS. THE UNDERSTANDING LEXUS ISSUED WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT NOW THEY INDICATE THE PROGRAM HAS EXPIRED. WE JUT PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FOR OUR 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND THIS IS MAJOR CONCERNS SINCE IT HAD SAFETY IMPACT IN MY MIND DUE TO THE GLARING AND POSSIBLE IMPACT TO THE AIR BAG DUE TO THE WORKMANSHIP FLAW THAT LEXUS IS ADMITTING TO. I WAS ONLY ALLOWED TO UPLOAD THE PICTURES BELOW. I COULDN'T UPLOAD ADDITIONAL PICTURES.

MY ENGINE BURN OIL MORE THAN IT SHOULD. I ADDED A FULL BOTTLE IN LESS THAN 3000 MILES. WHEN STARTING IT IN THE MORNING I CAN SMELL THE BURNING OIL!!

MY 2006 LEXUS IS250 SUDDENLY LOST POWER STEERING ONE DAY, WHEN SHIFTING FROM PARK TO DRIVE. RED P/S LIGHT SHOWED UP ON DASHBOARD, SO I HAD TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURN THE ENGINE OFF, AND TURN IT BACK ON TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. HOWEVER, IT WASN'T LONG BEFORE THIS STOPPED WORKING. P/S LIGHT SOMETIMES ALSO TURNS ON WHILE I'M ON THE FREEWAY, AND I HAVE TO MAN-HANDLE THE STEERING WHEEL TO PULL OVER. I BROUGHT MY CAR TO MY MECHANIC, WHO REPLACED THE RACK AND PINION TWICE. THEN, I BROUGHT MY CAR TO DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE THE ECM. THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN REPAIRS BUT THE ISSUE WAS STILL NOT FIXED.

THERE IS A VERY FOUL ODOR THAT FILLS THE CABIN OF THE CAR, IT STARTED APPROX, 2 MONTHS AGO WHEN I BEGAN USING THE A/C. LEXUS SERVICE DID A FORCED FOAM CLEANING OF THE H VAC SYSTEM AND 3 DAYS OF IONIZING THE AIR, THE CABIN FILTER WAS ALSO REPLACED. NONE OF THIS HAS HELPED AND THE SMELL IS UNBEARABLE PLEASE HELP!! THIS ODOR IS NOT ALWAYS FULL STRENGTH, IT IS PRESENT AFTER THE CAR HAS SAT OVER NIGHT OR JUST PARKED FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS. IT IS PRESENT WHEN DRIVING. NO RHYME OR REASON AND NO ONE CAN RID THE VEHICLE OF THIS FOUL RATCHET ODOR OR TELL ME WHAT IS CAUSING IT.

I GOT AN ACCIDENT, TRY TO SAVE DEER AND FOX BUT BRAKE DIDN'T WORK PROPERLY AND DIS-BALANCED THE CAR AND MY CAR ROLL OVER FEW TIME AND HIT FROM FRONT AND BACK BUT NO AIRBAG DEPLOYED, AND STABILITY CONTROL DIDN'T WORK.

MELTING DASH AND ALL DOORS PEELING OF IN PLACES AND DASH IS ALMOST COMPLETELY MELTED IN PLACES . EVERY WHEEL SENSOR WENT OUT ON THE SAME DAY AND AIR LIGHT STUCK ON NOW..
