Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I purchased a new Lexus gx 470 in november 2007. It always smelled musty. I took it to dealer two times and a 3rd party mechanic once. Lexus told me it was mold build up in AC unit. They said it occurred because I put the air flow on interior air flow only. Me and my 2 children have had asthma attacks and allergic reactions since the vehicle was purchased. They have had to increase their allergy medication and I have been put on a prescription.”
