ON NOVEMBER 3, 2015, LEXUS RX350 (2011) CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AT A PARKING LOT. WHEN THE GEAR WAS ABOUT TO BE PUT IN TO PARKING, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ITSELF AND MOVED APPROXIMATELY 40 FT FORWARD. THE CAR SPRANG OUT GOING OVER A CEMENT PARKING BLOCK, IRON FENCE THAT WAS DIVIDING ONE BUILDING'S PARKING LOT TO ANOTHER, AND FELL ABOUT 5 FT BELOW SINCE THE PARKING LOT WAS IN HIGHER LEVEL THAN OTHER BUILDING'S PARKING LOT. THE VEHICLE KEPT MOVING EVEN AFTER FALLING FROM THE HIGHER GROUND AND CAME TO A STOP AFTER HITTING A TREE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 LEXUS RX350 EQUIPPED WITH DUNLOP TIRES, SIZE: 235/55R19 (NA). WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THERE WAS A LOUD SOUND COMING FROM OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE STARTED WOBBLING AND WAS DIFFICULT TO STEER. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER AND DISCOVERED THAT THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE TIRE WAS BLOWN OUT. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE TIRE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE TIRE WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE 66,000 AND THE TIRE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,506. THE DOT NUMBER WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I BOUGHT A 2011 LEXUS RX450H NEW AT THE DEALERSHIP FEBRUARY OF 2011. FAST FORWARD TO SUMMER OF 2014. DRIVING DOWN I-20 IN EAST TEXAS, MIDDLE OF NOWHERE, CAR SUDDENLY HAS NO POWER, I BARELY GET IT ON THE SHOULDER. MESSAGE ON DASH "CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM". TOW TRUCK TO DEALER. FAILED OR BROKEN FUEL PUMP. THREE YEAR OLD CAR WITH 34,336 MILES. REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. FAST FORWARD TO SPRING OF 2015. DRIVING ON I-55 NORTH. CAR DIES WHILE HIGHWAY DRIVING. 41,452 MILES. OUT OF WARRANTY. BUT, LEXUS HAS 1 YEAR WARRANTY PARTS AND LABOR ON REPAIRS. LEXUS SAYS, OH, YOU HAD BAD GAS, DON'T HAVE TO HONOR REPAIR WARRANTY!! CHARGE WAS ABOUT $ 1,200. THEY ALLOWED $ 500 CREDIT. HAD TO PAY $655.89 OUT OF POCKET. TALKED TO KROGER FUEL, WHERE I HAD PURCHASED PREMIUM FUEL. NOT ONE COMPLAINT FROM ANYONE ELSE ABOUT FUEL FROM THAT STATION. SECOND BAD FUEL PUMP. FUEL PURCHASED BEFORE 1ST FUEL PUMP FAILED WAS FROM DALLAS STATION, NOT KROGER. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN CAR STOPS ON INTERSTATE. FLOORBOARDING GAS PEDAL, CAR GOING LESS THAN 10 MPH AND SLOWING, AND THEN REFUSED TO MOVE. WOULD NEVER BUY ANOTHER LEXUS. OBVIOUSLY SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH FUEL PUMPS. ALSO, LEXUS DOES NOT HONOR 1 YEAR REPAIR WARRANTY. POOR BUSINESS PRACTICE.

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE SUN ROOF IMPLODED, THE GLASS SHATTERED AND FELL INTO THE CAR THERE WAS NO ONE IN FRONT OF HER AND SHE WAS NOT GOING UNDER A OVER PASS. DEALER CLAIMS IT WAS A ROCK, NO WAY COULD A ROCK HIT AT THAT ANGLE WITH THAT MUCH FORCE TO SHATTER THE GLASS! WE HAVE HEARD OF THIS HAPPENING BEFORE BUT NOT WITH A LEXUS. WE WERE VERY LUCKY SHE WAS NOT IN CRASH AS IT WAS SUCH A SHOCK TO HER SHE HIT THE BREAKS NOT KNOWING WHAT HAPPEN. WE WERE NOT HAPPY WITH THE EXPLANATION OF THE DEALER OR LEXUS THAT IS WAS A ROCK! *JS
