LEXUS Complaints

WHEN USING ALL OF LANE KEEP ASSIST, LANE CENTER, AND CRUISE CONTROL, THE VEHICLE STEERS SHARPLY TO THE RIGHT AND WILL PULL OUT OF THE EXISTING LANE INTO THE LANE TO THE RIGHT. MOST NOTICEABLE AT SPEEDS ABOVE 40MPH. PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NEW, BUT SEEMS MORE PRONOUNCED BECAUSE I DO MORE HIGHWAY DRIVING NOW WITH CRUISE CONTROL. DEALER AND FACTORY REPS CONSIDER THIS BEHAVIOR NORMAL, YET A LOANER CAR OF THE SAME MODEL DID NOT EXHIBIT THIS SYMPTOM.

THE RUBBER COVER OF THE LIFTGATE SENSOR MELTED. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT IT CATCHING FIRE AND THE DOOR DOES NOT OPEN WHEN THIS IS TOUCHED AS IT IS SUPPOSED TO. I HAVE READ MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ONLINE FROM OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THE BLACK RUBBER MELTS AND STICKS TO FINGERS AND IS HARD TO REMOVE. I HAVE GRANDCHILDREN WHO TRY AND OPEN THE DOOR AT TIMES. IT ALSO CAUSES THE SENSOR TO MALFUNCTION SINCE THE RUBBER PIECE INTERFERES WITH THE SENSOR. THIS VERY COMMON DEFECT SHOULD ELICIT A RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL: I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER FROM LEXUS ON MARCH 7 FOR THE AIRBAG RECALL. NO FIX WAS PROVIDED AND WHEN I CALLED THEY DID NOT KNOW IF IT WOULD BE 1 MONTH OR 6 MONTHS UNTIL A FIX WAS AVAILABLE. THEIR SOLUTION WAS " DO NOT DRIVE THE CAR WITH A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT". THIS IS A STUPID AND UNACCEPTABLE RESPONSE. THIS TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL HAS BEEN OUT FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND SOMEONE IN TOYOTA/LEXUS HAS KNOW ABOUT IT? SOMEONE HAS BEEN COVERING UP THE MESS AT LEXUS? THIS BORDERS ON FRAUD AND AS A MINIMUM SOMEONE HIGH IN THEIR ORGANIZATION HAS LIED TO KEEP THIS UNDER COVER FOR THIS LONG. NOT DRIVING THE VEHICLE IS NOT AN OPTION. I HAVE PURCHASE 3 LEXUS IN THE PAST BUT THIS WAS MY LAST.

THE DOOR ACTUATOR WHICH CONTROLS THE ABILITY TO LOCK AND UNLOCK THE DOORS FAIL FREQUENTLY. THIS FAILURE MAY CAUSE THE INABILITY TO EXIT THE CAR OR HAVE SOMEONE OPEN THE CAR DOOR IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT OR OTHER PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE 3 OF THE DOOR ACTUATORS IN 60,000 MILES OR LESS. THIS WAS ALSO A PROBLEM IN MY LAST LEXUS WHICH WAS A 2007 ES350.

HEAD LIGHT GOT MOISTURE IN SIDE BURNED OUT HAD TO REPLACE ENTIRE HEAD LIGHT $2200.00 THIS HAD AN EXTENDED WARRENTY BUT I MISSED IT NEVER GOT NOTICE NOT MOVING
