Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Dashboard is sticky and shiny, I complained to the dealership but they did not repair the defect. Dealership stated they have seen many of the same model vehicle with the same problem, but Lexus has not issued a recall. I feel this material is hazardous as it makes driving difficult since it causes a strong glare.”
NHTSA complaint #10608234, filed 2014-07, 93,000 miles“Takata recall I am having issues regarding getting this fixed as well as my dashboard and doors as they are melting and cracking away after several attempts over the last year to get this resolved I still have gotten no response and it is only getting worse. It's becoming harder and harder to see when driving due to the glare from the dashboard and not to mention the fact that it is literally falling apart day by day.”
NHTSA complaint #10888051, filed 2016-07, 103,000 miles“I was involved in a crash while driving my 2007 Lexus is on friday december 13, 2013. I rear ended a toyota sequoia truck. My car sustained heavy damage, yet the air bags failed to deploy. The air bag sensor at the front bumper was destroyed in the crash. I have never had any damage to the vehicle before this accident, and no repair work has been performed on the car other than routine maintenance and recall repairs.”
NHTSA complaint #10556324, filed 2013-12, 64,000 miles“My airbag light is on. I did some research online and Lexus had issued a TSB for the airbag light for 2006-2007 (some 2008) Lexus is models. This TSB was only covering 5 years or 70k miles. I'm currently at 90k miles and this airbag light is on. Apparently the airbag harness the cars were fitted with were too short, and causes a fault in the system when one of the connectors related to the airbag system gets loosened up. This disables the entire airbag system from what I have read. …”
NHTSA complaint #11011259, filed 2017-07, 90,000 miles“I bought my car used in 2015 and about 1,000 miles after driving it off the lot the airbag light came on. I took it to the local Lexus dealership and they diagnosed it as the driver's knee airbag and said the entire airbag wire harness needed to be replaced and quoted me $3,500. I looked up the issue and found that Lexus had previously issued a tsib on it (l-sb-0167-08). I also read many owners around that time were able to get it fixed under warranty (72mo or 70k miles). Unfortunately that expired for me 2 years before I even bought the car. …”
