“Apeal against the recall done by Lexus toyota on may 16th, 2019, I took my car Lexus 2018 LS 500 to the dealer, Lexus of woodland hills, where I bought it, for being recalled by the company. (NHTSA recall no. 19v-134) after recall defects were fixed, I drove about 4,000 miles and took the car back to the dealer for maintenance. At this time, tremendous number of deep large scrapes on all four tires, which I had never seen in the entire driving experience of my life were pointed out by the dealer. The dealer violently insisted on the scrapes were not caused by the defects. …”
