2007 LEXUS LS460 Complaints

VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 65K MILES. WITHIN LAST 1,000 MILES, BEGAN NOTICING NOISES COMING FROM BRAKE ACTUATOR. NOISE HAS BECOME MORE NOTICEABLE. TODAY, ON 12/15/2016, WHILE DRIVING, I WAS REQUIRED TO BRAKE SUDDENLY, AND VEHICLE WAS NOT AS RESPONSIVE AS NEEDED. THIS ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I CALLED THE LOCAL LEXUS DEALERSHIP, AND THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF ANY CURRENT RECALLS - THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO SOON, BEFORE THE FAILURE OF THE BRAKE ACTUATOR CAUSES AN ACCIDENT. *TR
