Brakes: “Lexus had received numerous reports where various brake system related warning lamps illuminate due to internal malfunctions of the brake actuator assembly.

NHTSA complaint #11405575, filed 2021-03, 119,890 miles

Other or unknown: “The dashboard and side trim on the door has become sticky causing glare in the windshield which makes driving hazardous as difficult to see through the windshield while driving. Our 2007 Lexus ls460 has only 23,000 miles on it as it has been garaged most of the time we have owned it. Lexus will not process a recall to cover this issue. Legally they have a 'duty of care' with the manufacturing of this vehicle which they are refusing to meet.”
