DOOR LOCKS(ALL 4 DOORS) STOPPED LOCKING/UNLOCKING BY USE OF POWER DOOR LOCK BUTTON OR KEY FOB. EACH DOOR MUST NOW BE LOCKED / UNLOCKED MANUALLY. BASED ON FORUM PAGE, THIS IS A WIDESPREAD ISSUE THAT MUST BE INVESTIGATED. HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T36095_DS744492

Mileage: 30,000

THE POWER DOOR LOCK ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE STOPPED WORKING WITH THE KEY FOB. CAN ONLY LOCK AND UNLOCK BY USE OF ACTUAL KEY OR BY MANUALLY PUSHING DOOR LOCK. THE PASSENGER'S SIDE DOOR LOCK IS STARTING TO SHOW THE SAME SIGNS AS THE DRIVER'S SIDE DID BEFORE IT STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY. SOMETIMES WILL WORK PROPERLY AND SOMETIMES IT WON'T.

I PURCHASED A NEW SET OF YOKOHAMA 225/45R18 TORNANTE TIRES IN OCTOBER 2016 FROM MR. TIRE. IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING INSTALLATION I EXPERIENCED AN EXCESSIVE WARBLING NOISE FROM THE TIRES AND TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A TRUSTED TIRE SHOP. THEY FOUND THAT THE TREAD WAS WOBBLING FROM SIDE-TO-SIDE WHEN PLACED ON THE TIRE BALANCING MACHINE AND RECOMMENDED I TAKE IT BACK TO MR. TIRE FOR REPLACEMENT. I DID THIS AND MR. TIRE SAID THAT THE UNEVEN TREAD WAS NORMAL AND REFUSED TO REPLACE THE TIRE. I PROCEEDED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE 43,000 MILES OVER A 2.5 YEAR PERIOD AND EXPERIENCED AN INCREASINGLY NOISY RIDE AND VIBRATION AT HIGH SPEEDS. I GOT TO THE POINT WHERE I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE TIRES AND TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE. THEY INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND RECOMMENDED IMMEDIATE REPLACEMENT OF THE TIRES AS THERE WERE SEVERE CRACKS FORMING ON BOTH THE INNER AND OUTER SIDEWALL THAT WENT ALL THE WAY THROUGH TO THE INTERIOR OF THE TIRE. CLEARLY A TIRE NOT SAFE TO BE ON THE ROAD. I FEEL THAT THES

THE BRAKE IS VERY SPONGY. THE PEDAL GETS VERY LOW TO THE FLOOR.ITS HARD TO STOP THESE CAR. BRAKE FLUID, BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS CHECK OUT FINE AT THE DEALERSHIP. THERE ARE COMPLAINTS ABOUT DEFECTS WITH THE MASTER CYLINDER. MY CAR HAS 44000 MILES AND THE PROBLEM IS CHRONIC. YOU NEED A LARGE STOPPING RANGE WHEN USING THIS CAR. LEXUS CLAIMS I NEED TO GET USE TO IT

MY 2014 LEXUS ES 350 HAS LESS THEN 4000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND THE STEERING HAS MALFUNCTIONED TWICE AND I AM NOW UNABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR AS IT IS PART OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WHICH CONTINUALLY FREEZES UP MAKING IT INOPERABLE. I PURCHASED THE CAR 2 MONTHS AGO AND AS IT WAS CERTIFIED BY LEXUS THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED.THIS IS A POTENTIALLY VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. FORTUNATELY I WAS IN MY PARKING LOT BOTH TIMES THIS OCCURRED AND NOT ON THE HIGHWAY.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AND MY SUNROOF EXPLODED.

Mileage: 40,000

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.

MY CAR BATTERY IS DEAD 3 TIMES IN 2 YEARS.

WE DRIVE A LEXUS. OUR CHILDREN DRIVE A TOYOTA. THE PROBLEM IS, THEREFORE, IDENTICAL. WHEN ONE STARTS THE VEHICLE, PARTICULARLY IN A PARKING LOT, ONE EXPECTS THE REAR VIEW CAMERA FEATURE TO BE AVAILABLE. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN WITH THE LEXUS AND TOYOTA SYSTEM. AT THE INSTANT THAT ONE IS READY TO BACK OUT OF ONE'S PLACE, THE UPPER 15 -20% OF THE REAR VIEWING AREA IS COVERED WITH A SERIES OF MESSAGES TRANSMITTING INFORMATION ABOUT THE BLUETOOTH STATUS. THIS INFORMATION MAY BE IMPORTANT TO A 14-YEAR OLD, BUT NOT TO A DRIVER. ONE HAS TWO ALTERNATIVES; EITHER BACK UP BLIND (NEGATING THE WHOLE REASON FOR THE BACK UP SYSTEM) OR WAIT FOR THE MESSAGES TO FINISH, WASTING GASOLINE. I REQUESTED THE DEALER TO OVERRIDE THIS PROBLEM, BUT I WAS TOLD THAT IT COULD NOT BE DONE. *JS

ON 03/18/14 (MORNING), AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC INSPECTED AND CONCLUDED THROUGH TESTING THAT ONE OF THE ENGINE MOTOR MOUNTS WAS BROKEN/DEFECTIVE AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I WAS PRESENT FOR THE TEST AND THE MECHANIC WALKED ME THROUGH EACH STEP AND POINTED OUT EXACTLY WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND WHY. ON 03/19/14 (MORNING), LEXUS DEALERSHIP DENIES ANYTHING IS WRONG WITH THE MOTOR MOUNTS AND CANNOT "REPLICATE" THE PROBLEM. ON 03/19/14 (AFTERNOON) I MET WITH THE LEXUS SERVICE TECHNICIAN AND WE PERFORM THE EXACT SAME TEST AS MY INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. ALTHOUGH LEXUS CLAIMS NO REPAIRS WERE DONE SINCE THEY DIDN'T FIND A PROBLEM, THE TEST NOW SHOWS THE MOTOR MOUNTS AS BEING IN WORKING ORDER (MAGICALLY) ALTHOUGH LEXUS DENIES NOTHING WAS EVER WRONG AND NOTHING WAS REPAIRED BY LEXUS, ITS APPARENT TO ME AND MY MECHANIC THAT REPAIRS HAVE BEEN MADE BY THEM TO FIX THE PROBLEM WITHOUT IT BEING DOCUMENTED. *TR
