Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I have a Lexus ls 460l and have received a safety recall notice from Lexus regarding valve spring replacement. The dealer cannot take care of it until 1/24/11. I called the Lexus hotline for assurance that there are no safety issues with the car between now and then and they said they could not give me that assurance. I am supposed to drive to charlotte, nc next week from washington, dc and I asked them if I'd be ok in the car. Again, they said they could not provide assurances. So I guess I have a car that they cannot tell me can be safely used until after 1/24/11. …”

NHTSA complaint #10367787, filed 2010-11, 19,995 miles

“After an oil change at the dealer, the car is unable to accelerate, sluggish, and the powertrain acts lethargic, particularly when trying to enter the freeway or merge into traffic. The dealer has performed a software update, however the problem still persists. This only happened after and oil change. Several other ls460 owners I know complain about the same phenomenon. Lexus has no answer.”

NHTSA complaint #10505003, filed 2013-03, 61,000 miles

“After having the fuel pressure sensor gasket changed for the recall, I have had a strong fuel smell in the cabin. Taken to the dealer, spent nine weeks looking for the leak. They said they couldn't find it, but wanted me to pay $840 for gasket kit, but would not guarantee that it would fix it, next step would be to pull the engine at my expense...? Fire hazard !”
