Example complaints
Fuel system: “When driving at speeds over 50 MPH the cars engine dies. It has happened 3 times on the highway. It is very dangerous. The car will restart only after you come to a complete stop. Lexus states there are no issues. Very disappointing.”
NHTSA complaint #11321980, filed 2020-04, 10,000 milesOther or unknown: “When putting the vehicle in reverse the sideview mirrors automatically turn in and down per Lexus default. Problem is you cannot override the default to adjust them for a clear view to the rear, which means every time you back-up you have to adjust them. That creates 2 safety issues: first being sometime I am in the middle of the street trying to adjust the mirror to I can back-up, second if I don't I could possible damage or injure something or someone. …”
NHTSA complaint #11230453, filed 2019-07, 400 milesVisibility (wipers, defrost, mirrors): “The contact owns a 2019 Lexus GX460. While the contact’s wife was driving and exiting the driveway at the residence, the driver’s and passenger’s side side-view mirrors became distorted with crinkle-like lines. The contact stated that the lines obstructed driving visibility and the ability to safely operate the vehicle. Upon investigation, the contact discovered that a dimming solution between the glass of the sideview mirrors had caused the failure to occur. The contact linked that failure to a visit to the car wash the day prior to the discovery of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. …”
NHTSA complaint #11603766, filed 2024-07, 19,000 milesEngine: “Lexus keep sending us a recall notice (no 20v682) but with remedy not available. It has been more than a year were we are told our car might stall during driving. My lease will expire this december and I am still driving a car that I am told is not safe. I have been avoiding long trip with the car for this reason. Lexus need to come up with a remedy and compensate the current owner/lessee. My car did not stall yet but how do you expect me to drive a car you are telling me it might stall.”
