Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“My 2005 Lexus gx 470 has had 3 door actuators replaced already, and the 4th door actuator just went bad, along with 1 of the 3 that had just been replaced. The door actuators are what unlock the automatic doors. This could be a safety issue because the only door that opens with a key is the driver door. If someone needed to enter the car quickly to assist someone at any location other that the driver location, it could cause a problem. This occurs on a daily basis and I suspect I'm not the only gx 470 owner who has had the problem. …”
