While turning right from one street to another, there was complete engine shut-off, and several seconds passed before I could re-start the car, this occurring in morning rush hour, and barely averted an accident. This car also has had numerous random and occasional electrical problems, mirrors moving on their own, garage opener not working, seat memory not working, etc. Shop can't duplicate them and therefore cannot fix. Lexus does not respond. Worry is that engine cut-off might happen again, and also worry that there is an overall electrical problem that affects major systems, including engine operation.

I experienced a low speed sudden unintended acceleration of my 2014 Lexus Es350 for the first time on December 22, 2015. I was turning into a parking place where I live as I have done hundreds of times. As I was taking my foot off the acceleration pedal to starting hitting the brake pedal, the car suddenly accelerated. I heard the engine revving and I was taken totally by surprise. My reaction was to turn to the left to avoid hitting the wall in front of me while hitting the brake without any response from the car. I hit the wall with the right front side of the car and kept going for a little while until I somehow shifted gears. The car stopped and I put it on reverse. I again experienced the same situation on March 21, 2016 while parking the car at a different place. Fortunately, nothing obstructed the car so I was able to stop it before hitting anything - the override Toyota designed after all the earlier sudden unintended acceleration accidents worked this time. But this second incident confirmed to me that the first one will no longer be an isolated incident hence I'm filing this safety complaint so other Lexus owners learn about it.

Lexus inbox x cindy jacome <jacomecj@gmail. Com> 10:23 am (0 minutes ago) to me I own a 2011 Lexus ES 350. On 12/10/2015 I was parking in a church parking lt when suddenly my car roared like an airplane and surged up a hill through an iron gate at a cemetery, downing a stone pillar and finally coming to a stop on top of a headstone. I cannot describe the sheer panic I experienced. My first thought was thank god no one was in front of me. The previous day I picked up my 5 yr old granddaughter at her elementary school. Children could have been killed!!!! I can never drive this car again. I believe it will be totaled anyway. It's at eddie's auto body in moodus, connecticut. I retired 2 1/2 yrs ago from p&w aircraft as a performance engineer to buy the car of my dreams which turned out to be my worst nightmare. Following are other examples of the same issue. Please investigate this to save lives! cynthia jacome 152 eh colchester tpke moodus, CT. 06469 860-873-8265.

While entering my garage, my car suddenly accelerated and smashed into the rear wall destroying a cabinet and refridgerator and went through the wall. I couldn't stop the car as evidenced by brake skid marks on the garage floor. Lexus later inspected the car and claimed they could find no defect. Fortunately my wife and I were only shaken up from the deployment of the airbags. The car was totaled. My home and auto insurance covered part of the damage and Lexus has disavowed any responsibility, but they never inspected the damage to our home or the evidence that I was trying to stop the car almost from the instant it entered the garage. I can provide pictures by email, but I can't seem to retrieve them for this document. T.

Oil dumped out crossing a very long bridge & engine froze up/steering hard to control. . . Due to a defective vvti_oil hose rupturing. . Both Lexus & Toyota were aware of this problem & had issued a "limited service campaign" that ended on March 31, 2013. . Both refused to fix my car that with rental cars, cost me aprox. $7,000. 00. . This was a rubber hose, that both mfgs. Knew about and both CO. Continued to replace these faulty hoses, with another "rubber hose", even tho' there was & still is a metal hose that is recommended!! I had posted this problem with ya'll, shortly after, but, do not find records of. . But, aproz. 2 weeks ago, I received a notification from Lexus stating," they had decided to re-open this "limited service campaign" to extend to Dec. 31, 2021. . A day too late & alot of $$$$& time spent. . Even tho' Lexus said they would consider reimbursement on cars, like mine that already had been repaired. Lexus is only doing this, again, because I am 100% sure that all the many many Lexus & Toyota car owners that had their hoses replaced back in 2013 and prior are now experiencing what I had to go thru: engine died, almost ran off the bridge and spent weeks without a car. . Had to rent. I ask for you to please go back and research this faulty vvti_oil hose on both Lexus & toyata cars. . There are thousands, especially with Toyota!!! all you have to do is google vvti-oil hose and you will see. . Thank you in advance!!.

I have a 2007 Lexus, ES, and I feel the problem is with the electronic push button engine starter, and not the floor mats! people have experienced fatal car crashes due to its computer malfunctioning. Didn't a driver and his family lose their lives in a Lexus 350. Why is Toyota reluctant to give me personal safety and peace of mind?.

Engine icon warning on. Check engine. Lexus repair found defective cam shaft. Parts replaced count was 37.

Upon pulling out of a parking spot, engine suddenly flared up excessively. Brakes failed, engine start/turn off button would not operate. Vehicle would not stop. To preclude hitting traffic on a major street, I put car in reverse. Engine continued to flare excessively. Brakes still would not engage. I could not control vehicle thus crashed into 3 parked unoccupied vehicles.

I purchased a 2008 Lexus ES 350 on February 21, 2008. On may 28, 2008, I took the car to the dealer, Lexus of jacksonville, FL, because the gas pedal stuck on may 26, 2008. When this occurred, the car accelerated to over 80 mph and I had to insert my foot underneath the pedal to unstick and raise the pedal to decrease acceleration. Lexus of jacksonville checked the pedal and I was told the pedal had been adjusted. The problem has not recurred. On February 19, 2008, I was contacted by Lexus of jacksonville to schedule the vehicle for service as a result of the recall of the gas pedal sticking and an engine hose replacement.

- the contact owns a 2007 Lexus Es350. The contact is the original owner of the vehicle and immediately observed the cruise control was not operating properly. The contact noticed while driving at 55 miles per hour the vehicle's cruise control caused the vehicle to accelerate. The contact first noticed that the cruise control wasn't functioning properly at the time of purchase on October 11, 2006. Update (February 21, 2007): mr. Towers said that when the cruise control is on, the vehicle frequently accelerate beyond its set speed and keep going. Once he got a speed ticket because of it. Since, he was alert to the malfunction and able to disengage the cruise control usually after the vehicle exceeded the set speed by 10 to 15 mph. The malfunction seem to occur when other cars are around. At first, he though other cars were slowing down, but later realize that it was his car speeding up. He bought the car from an internet dealer and wasn't sure it had the "intelligent" cruise control. After complaining to Toyota, they bought the vehicle back.

Soon after I purchased my Es350 in Aug 2007 I started hearing a brrrrr sound coming from the engine which is only heard in a cold start and lasts for less than 10 min. I left the car overnight at two different dealership service depts so that they would be able to duplicate the sound also from a cold start. Twice I was told that the mechanics were unable to duplicate the sound which is difficult for me to believe as it is there everytime I start the car. (my husband thought that the sound was coming from the valves or tappits. ) the sound was not present on the Es350 loaner cars that were given to me nor is the sound heard in friends Es350 cars. I am concerned that there might be a problem later on with the vehicle and that this is a warning sign.
