Of course, after a few occurrences I knew there was a real problem and Lexus was not telling the truth. My phone call was in august 2010. …”

“I recently purchased a 2010 Lexus gx 460 for my wife. I purchased it brand new at stevenson Lexus in colorado. About 2 weeks ago our car developed a hesitation when accelerating from a stop.

I spoke with adam campbell the assistant service manager. …”
