OIL CONSUMPTION. VEHICLE HAS NO LEAKS AND NEEDS 1QUART OF OIL ADDED EVERY 2K MILES. CAR HAS 150K AND HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED. IT USES VALVOLINE 5W-30 FULL SYNTHETIC OIL AND GETS CHANGED EVERY 4-5K MILES OF OIL USAGE. I'VE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND TOYOTA/LEXUS IS NOT WILLING TO HELP OUT WITH THIS ISSUE.

IN NORMAL DRIVING SITUATIONS MY 2006 LEXUS IS350 BURNS OIL VERY QUICKLY. I AM ADDING OIL AT LEAST EVERY 3 WEEKS (ABOUT A QUART OR MORE). THERE ARE NO SPECIFIC ENGINE LEAKING ISSUES PER MY MECHANIC. THE ENGINE SEEMS TO BURN OIL ABNORMALLY FAST.

THE CAR WAS DRIVING NORMALLY ALL DAY ON MAIN ROADS AROUND TOWN UNTIL THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED TO FEEL KIND OF LOOSE. THAN THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN MAKING A WHINING NOISE WHILE TURNING AND SOMETIMES LOSE THE CENTER POSITION AND DRAG ONE WAY OR THE OTHER. IT SEEMS LIKE THE POWER STEERING WANTS TO GIVE UP BUT IT CATCHES ITSELF. BRAKING SEEMS FINE AND DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS SEEMS OKAY UNTIL I GET UP TO 30-40 MPH. I BELIEVE THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE POWER STEERING SINCE IN THIS LEXUS MODEL IT IS ELECTRIC POWER STEERING. FEELS VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE, I'M WORRIED IT WILL LOOSE POWER STEERING AT A TURN AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

Mileage: 200,000

THERE IS A CHANGE IN THE VEHICLE BRAKE PEDAL FEEL ITS NOT FIRM ANYMORE IT ALMOST GOES TO THE FLOOR AND IF I STEP A LITTLE HARDER THE PEDAL GOES ALL THE WAY DOWN I CHECK AND BLEED THE BRAKES FRONT AND REAR AND STILL NOT FEELING FIRM THE BRAKE PEDAL I SEE THAT SOME CARS SAME MODEL AND YEAR AS MINE HAVE A RECALL FOR THE MASTER CYLINDER BRAKES BUT NOT MINE

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND SAT OVERNIGHT. UPON STARTING CAR SRS LIGHT CAME ON AND WAS DIAGNOSED WITH TROUBLE CODE DTC 1861 THAT RESULTED IN A KNEE SQUIB MALFUNCTION DUE TO A WIRING HARNESS ISSUE. THIS REQUIRES A NEW WIRING HARNESS THAT WILL COST OVER $2500. LEXUS KNOWS THIS IS AN ISSUE AS THEY HAVE ISSUED A TSB FOR IT BUT REFUSES TO ISSUE A RECALL OR DO IT AS A GOODWILL SERVICE. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE ESPECIALLY DUE TO LEXUS REALIZING THERE IS AN ISSUE BUT REFUSING TO STEP UP AND CORRECT THE ISSUE.

I AM IN FEAR OF MY LIFE AND ANY OTHERS PASSENGERS I MAY HAVE RIDING IN MY CAR. I THINK SMELLING FUEL FROM INSIDE MY CAR AND IT'S VERY NOTICEABLE AFTER I HAVE DROVE FROM 1 LOCATION TO THE NEXT. I DID HAVE ALL MY RECALLS COMPLETED BY LOCAL DEALERSHIP INCLUDING THE FUEL DELIVERY PIPES. HOWEVER THERE IS ALSO 3 SEPARATE ISSUES FOR THIS RECALL . THE RECALL LETTER STATES DO NOT DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE IF YOU SMELL FUEL AND CONTACT YOUR LEXUS DEALERSHIP IMMEDIATELY. I DID CONTACT MY DEALERSHIP & THEY SAID THEY DON'T SMELL FUEL.I SMELL IT AND MY PASSENGERS SMELL FUEL BUT THE SMELL OF GAS OCCURS MOST OF THE TIME I DRIVEN FROM 1 ANOTHER AND WHEN I TOOK IT TO LEXUS AND IT HAD IT CHECKED IT SAT ALL NIGHT AND OF COURSE THEY WON'T SMELL IT THE CONSUMER REQUESTED TO BE REIMBURSED FOR THE RECALL REPAIR.*JS
