My wife has taken such good care of this car and always goes to the dealer when it needs work, except for oil changes which she goes to goodyear for. I had gotten tired of the recall for the dash and door panels recall and thought she had waited long enough since she was on the list and it seemed they were trying to "out wait" us until the car was sold or something. When I called Lexus headquarters, the lady was nice but mentioned it had a recall for the passenger airbag and said no one should sit in the passenger seat. I am appalled at the unprofessional way this was made public to us. It was supposed to be a notice in the mail which we never got. I sat in that seat many times, as well as other friends and family. For a problem this serious, which could result in death, I have lost faith in Lexus. They have become like all the other dealerships. I had thought it was the best vehicle made, period. Now that has changed. We were told to get a rental car for $35 maximum a day. What kind of deal is that? get a crappy small rental car for a year or more after driving a luxury vehicle? I personally have a mustang, and when we are tired of waiting or they fix the car and it gets old, I am getting my wife an american car to support our economy. Enough is enough, period.
Takata recall -- I have notified the dealership nearest me in san francisco and no one is able to replace the defective bag. I have contacted the dealership in daly city serramonte multiple times.
Takata recall - we are in zone a . Received recall notice advising no person should sit in passenger seat due to risk of injury or death. . Contacted dealer and Lexus (CA) told the "fix" will likely not be available until early 2017. Would like to sell the car. . But can't sell until airbag defect is repaired; we are unable to use the car until the defect is repaired. . .
Is 250 dash has melted and creates harsh glare and reflects into the windshield blocking the view out the front (see the attached picture in which the gooey surface of the dash is blocking the view of other vehicles on the road) when driving east or west towards the sun making it dangerous to drive. The problem is worst on hot days when the dash becomes more tacky, gooey, and reflective. The dash also seems to off gas and create a haze that builds on the windshield. Toyota is replacing some off the dashes and interiors through a "warranty enhancement" but will not replace mine because the vehicle has been in a wreck, had an insurance claim, and been repaired. This voids their "enhancement". The issue is present on many Lexus vehicles, though and can be a hazard. They will not fix my vehicle because this issue is not yet a recall. I am worried about not being able to see out of the vehicle well.

Srs warning just came on by itself and stayed on. I took it to a Lexus dealer service and they've diagnose the exact problem as stated on: Lexus Is250 2006 safety report #lsb-0167-08 Lexus Is250 2006 technical service bulletin was issued Dec 11, 2008. Lexus Is250 2006 had a failed air bags . Lexus: vehicles may exhibit a srs light on condition with dtc b1861. . ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lexus agreed to cover half the cost of the part and zero on service, because it was over the 70,000 mile warranty. I told them that I was never informed of this defect when my vehicle was still under warranty but they still refused to cover the full cost of fixing it. I'm upset that they feel the customer is mainly responsible for a known defect that they knew about.
