5 Electrical System problem of the 2013 Lexus GS

Failure Date: 04/25/2020

The struts are failing (leaking) and this is a known problem across the internet. Also, the door lock actuators stop working periodically. And finally, the rear defroster stoped working. I've owned much cheaper cars with well over 100,000 miles and never experienced these problems. This car only has 82,000 and well taken care of as I have another car that I lease and the Lexus is usually in the garage.

8 Electrical System problem of the 2006 Lexus GS

Failure Date: 02/15/2012

My vehicle head light flickers on and off. When it flickers out, if you turn the light switch off and on, it turns the light back on. The light may stay on or flicker back out without knowing. I had the light bulb replaced, costing $275. 00 thinking that was the issue. Weeks later, I was notified by a random person the same light was out. Again, turning the switch on and off, allowed the light to turn on, but later flickering out and on. I took the vehicle in to Lexus, they first said it sounded like the light bulb was burning out, but later identified it as as a component inside the light housing. To repair this, is a cost around $1,800. 00 parts and labor, part is about 1,350. 00. An issue with unstable headlights would be a safety issue on the vehicle. I believe the manufactor should have to recall a part which should last on average to any other vehicle on the highway. The cost to repair it, makes it even more of a safety issue, because most people will not replace the entire light assembly, if you can just turn the light switch off and on to start the light working again. What happens one minute the light is on, the next it is out? Lexus, should be responsible for ensuring this is a stable component of the light assembly, not the consumer!.

9 Electrical System problem of the 2006 Lexus GS

Failure Date: 12/01/2011

This is extremely dangerous. My headlights keep going out. Ive replaced the lamps and this wont fix the problem. I cant believe Lexus is letting this continue with such a major safety issue of having non working headlights. They go on and off at all times. Ive got kids and im terrified to drive any time close to night fall with them in the car. I notice they are on then 5 minutes later they flicker off. I turn the switch on and off and they stay on for a bit then turn off again. This is a major safety isssue and it looks like its affecting many of us. Its so frustrating that I cant get a reason for it and ive gotten 3 different estimates on the repair for 5 different things. No on can tell me what the problem is they just want me to start replacing things for 1,000's of dollars and no guarantee that it will solve the problem. This is just rediculous. Someone please help us.
