Equipment Problems of Lexus GS350

To whom it may concern; greetings, it is with extreme disappointment, frustration and trauma that we notify you of a third burn in our car. On Friday, 14 February we experienced a 2nd smoke and burn stain on the arm rest in the rear. Yet again the car was in motion, time was approximately 3:30p, we had 4:30p dinner reservations. As suggested during our last visit Monday, 20 January a possible reflection from something in the car could have started the smoke and burn. We are baffled, traumatized and extremely concerned about these issues that randomly occur when the car is in motion. We are fearful of driving the car with ease and comfort promised by the Lexus brand. We were advised to removed the car from our garage, remove the cross hanging from the rear view mirror yet again we have another issue. Since purchasing this car, we have experienced issue after issue with random burning being most severe. We are trying to enjoy our car and have faith in this brand. We must say it is quite challenging to say the lease. Please tell us next steps and what our options are. Patching burn marks is not a solution to these ongoing issues. We look forward to hearing from you soon. We have provided pictures of the burn mark for your review. Third burn issue overall and second burn issue on rear armrest.

I visited multiple times at the Lexus dealership for fixing the ticking noise. When I drove uneven pavement, press break, and rough road, it produces metal ticking noise. They fixed my car 3 times (under warranty) but I'm still hearing the same noise over and over. 1st time - they insulated the rear door speaker 2nd time - they changed the seat-belt buckle 3rd time - they changed the seat-belt and replaced some bolts. 4th time - they refused to fix my car and they told me to send the noise in mp3/video, so I sent the file to them but they ignored me I don't think this problem is relating to the seatbelt. I think it's factory defect in the weld/glue of the b-pillar where it attaches to the roof. I tried to tell them the problem but they did not listen to me at all this noise is happened in last januray but I couldn't visit at the dealership due to the work and I started to visit at there in July and they couldn't fix the problem until now. . .

We did take our vehicle to johnson Lexus of raleigh service department on 01/20/2020 and we spoke with general manager deborah meli & service manager rick bergevin. Mr. Rick took photos to send to a Lexus specialist for review. Mr. Rick suggested that this might have occurred do to owners error. Either something spilled in that area or it was a reflection of some object that caused this issue to occur. We informed him that this had to have happened do to heating elements malfunctioning and it ignited from inside outward. While in motion on the highway.

As I was driving in the early morning, I opened the moonroof. 5 minutes later I decided to close it because it got cold fast in the car. Upon closing, the moonroof glass self exploded as I was driving 40-45mph. The glass was everywhere. I had to immediately pull over and asses why and what had happened. Nothing hit it, nothing fell on it, all I did was open and close it and it exploded. After further research online, I realized I wasn't the only one that this has happened to. I decided to submit my complaint as this is a very scary and dangerous issue.

My ac compressor has gone out in this car, it is on backorder they say but its been two weeks in addition I have called several Lexus dealerships including the main Lexus company and they dont have any in stock and over 20+ on back order which clearly indicates there is a fault in them. I have gone 2 weeks with no ac and im in oklahoma where its 90+ degree weather.

Infotainment notifications entirely obscure rear camera view of cars. This is true of all Toyota a d Lexus models using the infotainment system.

Trunk latch nut can become loose and fall out making it impossible to close trunk.

The driver side front tire scratches the fender when turning half way right. I reported to the dealer, dealer also showed me the same model which has the same issue, then he said he can do nothing with this, so this is normal.

The rear view mirror image is fading with crinkle marks on the surface of the glass of the mirror. I garage my car at home and work so I know that it is not the sun that caused it. I have read some of the same problems with other owners of the car on the Lexus blog. Many have contacted their local Lexus dealer and were told to purchase a new mirror which costs anywhere from $300 to $700 out of their own pockets. Can you help me?.

The contact owns a 2013 Lexus Gs350. The contact stated that the voice command feature did not operate properly. As a result, the contact had to enter three hand commands instead of being able to use her voice. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnosis and the contact was informed that the system operated the way it was designed. The contact was also referred to the manufacturer, who did a simulation and agreed that certain hand commands were necessary. The manufacturer also stated that the feature was operating as designed. The contact felt that she should not have to use hand commands and felt unsafe when doing so. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure and current mileages were 1,100.

This is a correction of complaint #10263748 regarding a "Smart key" fault. I recently had the opportunity to drive a 2007 Lexus GS equipped with their "Smart key" , I. E. A key fob which can stay in your pocket and allow you to start the vehicle without requiring a key in the ignition. Similarly, I also drove a 2009 Nissan murano equipped with the same type "Smart key". I have found that both vehicles can be shut off and exited while it is inadvertently left in the "neutral" position. Although a barely audible chime rings, a driver can exit the vehicle not realizing the vehicle can free-wheel on them and if the vehicle is on any type of incline, it will begin rolling away -- possibly as they are half-way out of the car or walking away!! I am astounded that there are no "neutral safety" controls on these new vehicles. Standard key ignitions prevent the driver from removing the key in any position except "park" when they exit . . . Not so with these new "Smart key" cars!! I foresee many accidents occurring unless some correction is made in this "Smart key option" -- think of a person trying to reenter a rolling vehicle, a child in a driveway, or a car rolling into an intersection!! I don't understand how a government vehicle safety organization would overlook this serious flaw.
