Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Within having my brand new Lexus a few years, the seats started coming apart. I took the vehicle to Lexus, they told me my warranty does not cove cosmetics. I told them for the cost of the vehicle my seats should not be deteriorating this soon. You can see the cotton stuffing through the seats. My dashboard is also melting. It is sticky and nasty feeling. It looks like someone has stuck holes in it. It is gross. I feel ashamed in driving this car.”
NHTSA complaint #10706680, filed 2015-04, 5,320 miles“Within a few days of purchasing and driving this (brand new) vehicle my back started to hurt. Lexus indicated that there is no defect and the vehicle is working as designed. The driver seat does not offer the same range of adjustments as other vehicles. This is borne out by the fact that I do not have any problems driving other vehicles. Continued use of this vehicle is detrimental to my back and hence my health and well being. This vehicle is not safe for all persons.”
