“I wanted to write to express my extreme disappointment in my Lexus driving experience. I currently own a 2002 Lexus ls 430 sedan that I purchased on december 28, 2005. Since then, I have had very serious problems with my braking system. First, my vehicle had been in the shop 7 times for my brakes. This is a very serious problem; my emergency brake comes on by itself. While I am driving the brake light comes on, I must pull over and stop the vehicle and pull the brake before the vehicle will move again. …”
NHTSA complaint #10162268, filed 2006-07“The contact owns a 2002 Lexus LS430 purchased new. He stated all four passenger compartment windows were de laminating. The dealer advised there were no recalls. The first initial repair was done under warranty, however the failure became progressively worse. The manufacturer would take no liability for the failure. The failure mileage was 45,000 and the current was 110,000. Updated 02/02/10 all of the windows were delaminated resulting in a failure of the safety glass and progressive obstruction on both the left and right sides. Updated 02/04/10.”
