MY CAR IS A 2006 LEXUS. IN 2018 I SHOWED THE LEXUS DEALERSHIP THE DAMAGE TO THE REAR VIEW MIRROR. I TOLD THEM MANY PEOPLE ONLINE HAVE SIMILAR ISSUES. THEY SAID THERE WERE NO RECALLS OR TSBS ISSUED FOR IT. I DID MY OWN RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT IN 2016, LEXUS ISSUED A TSB BECAUSE THE REAR VIEW MIRROR HAS HAD PROBLEMS WHERE THE COLOR HAS BLACK SPOTS ON IT AND THE DRIVER IS UNABLE TO SEE THROUGH THE MIRROR. THE TSB IS L-SB-0043-16 AND WEBLINK IS HTTPS://STATIC.NHTSA.GOV/ODI/TSBS/2016/SB-10084333-5448.PDF. I PRINTED THIS OUT AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TODAY. THEY SAID MY CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. I EXPLAINED THE TSB WAS ISSUED 10 YEARS AFTER MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED SO OFCOURSE THE CAR WOULD BE OUT OF WARRANTY BUT THE MIRROR SHOULD BE REPAIRED BUT THEY REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE DATE OF THE TSB AND WOULD NOT REPAIR THE MIRROR.

ON 3/11/2019 I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 35 MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND LOCKED UP WHILE DRIVING ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN. I HAD TO SLAM THE BRAKES TO NOT HIT A MEDIAN. LUCKILY I DIDN'T GET REAR ENDED. TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER. I FOUND MYSELF FROM RESEARCH THE VEHICLE HAS A CAMPAIGN RECALL "9LC" AND THEY SAID MY CAR DOES NOT FALL UNDER THE VIN NUMBER RANGE FOR THE REPAIR. DID MY OWN RESEARCH AND FOUND IT WAS WITHIN RANGE (HOW CAN I GET MORE INFORMATION FOR MY VEHICLE THAN THE DEALER? SEEMS FISHY TO ME LIKE THEY DON'T WANT TO DO WARRANTY WORK) THEY AGREED TO COVER IT IF IT WAS THE STEERING RACK. NOW THEY DID THERE DIAGNOSTICS TO CONFIRM THE ISSUE. TWO DAYS LATER THEY SAID YES IT IS THE STEERING RACK BUT THE RECALL WAS DONE ALREADY BY ANOTHER DEALERSHIP YEARS AGO. CALLED THE OTHER DEALERSHIP THEY MENTIONED AND THEY HAVE NO RECORD OF REPLACING THE STEERING RACK, EVEN HAD THEM FAX ME THE INVOICES. ALSO CHECKED CARFAX AND THERE IS NO RECORD AS WELL BUT EVERYTHING ELSE S

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE (USED) IN 2014. I HAVE EXPERIENCED A REBUILT TRANSMISSION ($4200), NEW ALTERNATOR AND NOW I'M CURRENTLY EXPERIENCE OIL CONSUMPTION. MY CAR IS BURNING OIL AT-AT-A RAPID PACE. I HAVE REPLACED MY OIL TWO TIMES IN TWO MONTHS. MY MECHANIC HAS INFORMED ME THAT IT'S THE ENGINE (MANUFACTURER ISSUE) AND IT IS DUE TO CARBON BUILD UP DUE TO A STANDARD FOR THIS MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR. IT'S BURNING ALOT OF OIL THAT IS CAUSING THE BUILD UP IN THE ENGINE. IT WAS ADVISED THAT I SHOULD REPLACE THE ENGINE (WHO CAN AFFORD THAT) OR HAVE IT REBUILT. IF THIS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT IT IS NOT THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OWNER. THIS IS MY ONLY VEHICLE AND I'M A MOTHER OF TWO YOUNG CHILDREN. IT'S VERY UNSAFE FOR ME TO DRIVE AND IS JERKING; WHILE I DRIVE. I JUST TOPPED OFF MY OIL AGAIN THIS WEEKEND; DUE TO THE OIL LIGHT COMING ON. I ONLY HAVE 146,461 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. THAT'S VERY LOW FOR A 13-YEAR OLD CAR. THIS IS MY SECOND LEXUS AND IT'S VERY TROUBLING TO NOT ONLY READ THIS C

WHILE BRINGING THE CAR TO A STOP, I AM EXPERIENCING A VERY HARD DOWNSHIFT FROM 2ND GEAR TO 1ST GEAR. THIS HARD DOWNSHIFT IS SO ABRUPT THAT IT FEELS AS IF YOU WERE REAR ENDED. RESEARCH SHOWS THIS BEING AN ELECTRONIC FAILURE IN THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE BACKED WITH HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS OF THIS EXACT ISSUE TO THIS PARTICULAR YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL. IN SEVERAL CASES, MENTIONS OF A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST TOYOTA/LEXUS HAVE BEEN MENTIONED. IT'S A COSTLY, YET UNNECESSARY REPAIR CAUSED BY A FLAWED DESIGN WITHIN THE ELECTRONIC COMPONENTRY.. CONSIDERING THE REOCCURRENCE OF THIS ISSUE ON A MASS SCALE, IT MAY BE ONE BEST ADDRESSED VIA RECALL.
