“I purchased a 2010 hs 250h Lexus in aug 8, 2016. I recently found out that it has been recalled 7 times with serious under the hood issues and was told the only one outstanding the one I stumbled upon due to research. This car has ruined my life.it has needed all sort of repairs since I purchased it. Most of the time it has had to just sit in the yard due to the fact that I was and still is, afraid to drive it.. It started just a few days after my dealer warranty had run out. It cuts off in the middle of the road, losing the ability to accelerate,etc. …”
NHTSA complaint #11090203, filed 2018-04, 79,000 miles“Nhtsa recall no. 16v-596, issued approximately one month ago. There is a nationwide shortage of the parts needed to correct the recall, and dealers cannot tell me when the parts will be available. This was confirmed by talking with two dealers near me and the Lexus customer care center. The recall cannot be completed in a timely manner - the recall appears to require immediate attention and replacement of both rear suspension arms. Both dealers claimed this was an interim notice, but the recall states remedy notice and recommends an appointment asap.”

Toronto Lexus told me that the damages to the tires wererear due to misalignment by westside Lexus. Lexus USA only reimbursed me a small portion of the total cost (redo of recall work + 4 new tires). Neither Lexus USA nor westside Lexus would pay for the damages on the tires. The story: I purchase the Lexus 2010 h250h from westside Lexus houston in 2010. On april 10, 2015, westside Lexus did a recall work on the rear suspension arms (rear tie rods). …”

NHTSA complaint #10593890, filed 2014-05, 78,900 miles“Brakes: the car is presenting issues when braking, in order to brake it has to be pressed too hard, and it does not brake immediately is more like gradually, which makes slower the brake process, and very dangerous. It also makes a very annoying squeaky sound. Suspension: the car has been aligned 3 times in less than a week since I bought it 10 days ago. However, it still pulls to the right when driving. It's very uncomfortable to be driving pulling to the left in order to keep the wheels straight. …”
