2007 LEXUS LS- Garnerville, NY
For the Ls460, there was a recall due to interior component deterioration during Covid. I believe that during COVID lockdowns, dealerships were understaffed, as I was unable to schedule an appointment. When I contacted after the COVID lockdowns were over, I was informed that I was unable to complete the recall. The interior of the car is now deteriorating far worse. How can I get an extension of this recall?

2017 LEXUS RX- farmingdale, NY
At approximately 6:45pm on Tuesday, December 27, I was driving in Nassau County, NY, when my sunroof exploded. The sound was terrifying and I was very concerned that I was shot at or hit by an unknown object. At first I thought the object hit my car or my back windshield. I looked and did not see any holes anywhere but I could hear air coming into my car. I moved my sunroof shield and saw a gaping hole and shattered glass.
