When I was driving at night, all of a suddent driver side headlight (low beam) turned off and I was driving with one light all alone. I tried switching on and off but still didnt resolved. Next day morning both lights were glowing but the driver side light went off after 10-15 min. Then I turned off and on, it came back. Not sure whether its a faulty light bulb or something else.

While car was parked in the garage it was trying to start up on it's own with no keys. The dash lights were blinking and the car was making a loud cranking, banging noise and we could smell the smoke. After lifting up the hood we could see the smoke coming from the engine and it was still trying to crank up. Smoke begin to fill the garage and it was getting worse. We were finally able to put out the fire with the extinqisher and were able to remove the battery to get the car to stop trying to start up. What would cause such a dangerous thing to happen. Car is still in the garage at this time not sure what to do with it because I am not sure of the engine damage the fire caused. Is this some kind of electrical malfunction?.

I drive a 2006 Lexus Gs300 that is having a problem with the exterior headlight randomly turning off while I am driving. This can be very dangerous and I have already received one ticket for this. I see there are many other people on here complaining about the exact same problem and I don't understand why an investigation has not been opened. This exact same problem happened to what im assuming was my other side, about a year ago. It was very expensive to fix, I think it cost me about $1500 at the Lexus dealership. I definitely cant afford to pay that right now and not to mention I already got a ticket for this. I have been trying not to drive my car at night but it is very inconvenient. Are there any alternative methods I could use as a temporary fix until I can get this fixed?.

I own a 2006 Lexus Gs300 with currently 80,000 miles and for the past 2 months, the headlights seem to turn itself off while driving. . Sometimes it would be the driver side, other times it would be the passenger side, and often it would be both headlights - a complete blackout! I have to turn the light switch off and on for it to work again (for another few minutes and it would turn itself off again). I've been high beamed and honked at several times. It doesn't matter if the headlights are in automatic or manual mode. Its been very frustrating dealing with this problem. I love my car but I don't want put me, my kids, or anyone else's life in danger should my headlights go out or get pulled over by the police!!! please someone help!! I feel like I cant be driving my car at night if this problem keeps happening!!! do a recall please!! is it really worth someone losing their life over??.

My 2006 Gs300 has been having the same problem, intermittent headlight, for over a year. Dealers do not want to admit the issue. It is scary when both lights go off in the highway at night. I am trying to find out how I can get the Lexus to issue a recall for this problem. I am thinking to got my lawyer involved. My email is [xxx] I am thinking to create a list of owners who are experiencing this issue and collectively request for a recall. Please feel free to contact me with any comment or suggestion.

While driving for first time after Lexus regional technician investigated problems documented in previous NHTSA complaints 10323826 and 10317084, all brake related panel lights came on and brake alarm sounded. I did not lose brakes so diagnostic may be false. I brought the vehicle home and had it towed to the Lexus dealership where they are now investigating this condition. It is highly coincident that this problem, which has never appeared before, occurred immediately after the exam by the regional technician.

I have Lexus Gs300. The car were stalled in the middle of the highway. I towed the car to Lexus. They told me it is not mechanical problem. One of the electronic sensor were malfunction. It seems the Lexus sense is not reliable and caused the car to stall in the middle of the highway.

The contact owns a 2006 Lexus Gs300. The contact stated that she received three separate recall letters from the manufacturer for the electrical system, rear brake calipers, and the fuel delivery pipes. The dealer advised that it would take a week for the parts to arrive for the repairs. The contact was also informed that it would take an additional week for the actual repairs to be completed. She was concerned that the recall was initiated due to a defect and possible safety related issue; however, the dealer was not equipped with the necessary parts for the recall repair. The NHTSA campaign id numbers were unknown. The current and failure mileages were less than 20,000.

Driver side headlight goes out shortly after being turned on. I had this same issue about 3 to 4 months ago with my passenger side headlight. The dealer says that they replaced the wires and housing on the passenger side headlight since they could not verify the exact issue. I am concerned that this is a electrical issue. My car is a 2006 Lexus GS 300.

Lexus GS 300: headlamp goes out! vehicle was serviced four separate times by the dealer. With each repair visit the dealer responded the same way. We cannot replicate the problem, can't fix it until we can. The vehicle has been returned four times to the owner with the headlamp not working. Four separate visits to the Lexus dealerships during a nine month period generated the same response. First the headlamp was replaced. Two days later the same problem occurred. The headlamp went out while the vehicle was being driven at night. Headlamp problems are known to exist, however Lexus keeps no records of owner reported headlamp problems on their maintenance records. My dealership record shows no record of the vehicle ever being serviced for problems beyond the original headlamp replacement. All attempts to have Lexus corporate re-purchase the vehicle has been refused, first by vaughn wendelstaph, then paulette criss, vp. How many fatal crashes due to a Lexus failed headlamps are required before Lexus takes responsibility for the defect, recalls the vehicles, and removes the safety hazard from the road? Lexus has offered to waste more of my time and continue to guess at what the problem might be and replace random parts until they get it right. In the meantime I'm told to continue to drive this moving hazard and putting myself, my family, and all other passengers at risk. I urge all Lexus owners having a Lexus lemons headlamp safety or other road hazard problem. Blog your response to Lexuslemons. Com. Updated 09/04/09.

Spontaneous acceleration after bringing car to a complete stop in a parking lot. Vehicle lurched forward onto an island before I could stop it again. This incident is related to a previous incident,odi number 10317084, which occurred in June 2007.

Sudden unexpected acceleration resulted in collision. Driver applied brakes with maximum force but was unable to stop vehicle. Driver did not have foot on gas pedal. Floor mat was not interfering with gas pedal.

Notice of claims regarding texas deceptive trade practices act breach of contract. The trunk button would unlock with the remote, the radio shut off, and the driver rear door would not lock at times.

Vehicle accelerated without pressing the gas pedal. Took vehicle to dealer who stated that stabilizer bar was defective. Consumer stated that he hit five cars over a distance of about 1/2 mile before coming to a stop. Surging caused by electromagnetic wave, brake and airbag problems, arising from the wave and the vehicle's computer.

In late september1999 while sitting in traffic with the car in and my foot on the brake, the car began to accelerate and surged forward. I reacted immediately by shifting the car into park. This allowed me to regain control of the car. The second incident occurred in early November 1999, when I came to a complete stop a stop sign. As I applied the brake, the car once again attempted to surge through the intersection. Another episode occurred in early December 1999 when I was driving my son home from school. We approached the intersection and I stepped on on the brake. The car surged forward so intensely that the seat belt tightened around him so tight I was unable to release him. He was completely horrified and his shoulder was bruised when I cut the seat belt off when we arrived home. At that point I contacted Lexus and took the car to the dealership. Shortly thereafter I was contacted and told that could find anything wrong with the vehicle. On April 14, 2003 I was stopped at a traffic light with my foot on the brake, when the car began to accelerate and surged forward. As with the prior incidents I reacted by shifting into park. I contacted Lexus again and they informed me that they could find anything wrong with the car. O April 21, 2003 I sent sent a letter to dannyclements, ceo of Lexus seeking assistance. I have never received an answer and the problem still exists. Their has been other incidents over the years. I have lost confidence in Lexus ability to correct the problem. I still own the vehicle and decided to file the report after seeing the coverage of this incidents on the news. This problem goes back years any help would be greatly appreciated. Or perhaps save a life. Or expand the recall.
