“Turning left into neighborhood and struck rear passenger side panel behind the tire (bumper area). I was going approx 10-15 MPH, other vehicle (camry) was going 40 MPH. Car rolled twice. I believe this is due to a known issue with this model leaning to the right, which causes an increased rollover risk on left hand turns. It seems that Lexus is aware, but has not addressed the issue. Happy to provide photos or additional documentation if needed.”

I flipped 2.5 times and landed upside down. I was able to exit the vehicle through the rear windows my child. The car kept me safe as far as airbags and seatbelt.

NHTSA complaint #11078451, filed 2018-03, 16,500 miles“The vehicle leans to the right (passenger side) about 1 1/4 compared to left side since day 1 after purchase. I contacted 3 Lexus dealers and was told it is within specs . This is a known issue on gx 460 models but Lexus refuses to admit it. They refuse to repair it. The vehicle has extreme body roll to the right during left turns and feels a lot more stable during right turns. This is a major safety concern. I contacted the Lexus corporate office and was told that this is a characteristic of the vehicle and they will not repair it. …”
