NHTSA complaint #10892992, filed 2016-08, 45,000 miles“My dash is cracked in a couple of places. Online research shows this is a common problem, however I see no recall notice. This should be replaced by Lexus as it greatly reduces the resell value of the car.”

I re-registered in august of 2016 and they said that an order for the dashboard has been placed. It is now six more months and they can not tell me when they expect to replace the dashboard. I would like to know what my options are.”
