Other Fuel System Problems of Lexus IS250

After I get gas my car wont start. This has been happening for about 9 months. It takes about 10 mins for the car to turn on. Yesterday after I got gas and was driving, my car completely shut off in the middle of the freeway- thought I was going to die. Very dangerous. Took my car to Lexus back in may to be fixed and the issue was not fixed. They put new gas in my car and told me that was the issue. . . Was not.

Major fuel leak on 2 fuel injectors. Potential fire hazard could have happened if not towed to my local mechanic. Minor crash happened due to some headache. The vehicle has 90,300miles on it and was serviced per the manufacturer's recommendation. Based on research this is persistent with some Lexus models.

I was inform by other Lexus that there are recall for 2006-2013 Lexus on serveral parts. I made a call to Lexus dealership of sacramento and spoke to representative she had also confirm the recal on my car and booked me an appointment several days later. I went to my appointment and was denied my services, they told me it had expired and that I had to pay for all my repairs. I was never notified about any recalls. I feel like I was rip off for being 17years old kid. I felt cheated.

Hi when I am driving a strong odor comes into cab smells like rotten eggs and fuel its very over powering while driving I have talked to mechanics and they cant figure out what it is or where it comes from. I have read on forums and it is a common issue with this model.

While driving in the highway back home the check engine light came on and it said vsc. When I got home I did some research online and went back to my vehicle and checked the gas cover to see if it could off been that but it still has the check engine light on.

Upon parking vehicle accelerated when the brake was applied. I questioned myself if the incident could have been operator related. I was propelled into a steel barrier that resulted in damage to the front bumper and grill. Later that day the car accelerated a second time when applying the brakes while parking the vehicle. Fortunately no one was in front of me. No one was hurt and the air bags did not deploy. This second incident has lead me to believe that the car is not safe to drive. Toyota investigated the incident and is explaining that my foot was on the accelerator pedal and break at the same time which is just not true. I can't drive the vehicle or sell it. I'm disappointed at this car company.

Bought car maybe two weeks ago first day fuel line busted, third day suspension and tires came apart, my electrical components under the hood are mostly fried and worn out could cause for, brake lights uncontrollable.

Vsc and engine light are on. Inside of car smells like exhaust is coming through. Steering seems to be impaired.

A year or so ago my car started overheating. I stopped and the car shut off. The computer system froze and said checking system and showed a drawing of a car frame and what I guess is the heat source. I took my car to the mechanic and he replaced the water pump. It had cracked and boiled over and ever since I have had nothing but problems. I've replaced the alternator, the battery, and my navigation system is blank and completely doesn't work. Nor do the buttons around it. The motherboard is fried. Also sometimes when I'm driving at night my headlights turn off in the pitch black driving down the road. My dashboard is melting and since I'm a realtor who puts a lot of miles on her car, I'm underwater. I'm either going to have a heat stroke driving that sauna around (the heat is stuck on) or crash when my headlights suddenly stop working. My daughter is learning to drive and I cannot let her drive once it gets dark. It's okay for me to die but not her. There doesn't need to be a sensor right under the water pump that can destroy your hole car. Thank you for your time.

After having the car I started getting the feel as if the car wanted to cut off each time I came to a stop. There was vibration with in the motor as it seemed. I contacted the dealership and they advise there was a issue with my model with the motor system with the vibration. They fixed the issue so I thought but as of today there is still vibrations at time when I come to a complete stop. Later on I received a recall on the dashboard and door panels. I later received another recall for my airbags, now my airbag light keeps coming on and I'm having to take the car back and forth to the dealership. These items has happen on number of occasions.

The transmission on my car has issues jerking when in gear and stopping when in use. I took my car to a certified Lexus dealer and they could not repair it. I'm sure because it was no longer under warranty. I took it to a transmission machanic and I bought a 2006 Is250 used transmission from a car that was totaled that had less miles and was totaled because the frame was bent because it was rear ended. In less than a year same problem transmission again! I spent $4500 the first go around I couldn't afford that again. I had to buy another car for what I paid to repair the Lexus. I've checked for recalls yeah my dash has melted and all of the other recalls! I can't get those corrected!! I'm starting a class action lawsuit!!! I've spent to much money on a high class Toyota that has more problems than its worth!!!!.

About 3-4 times a day when I'm driving freeway my car will let off a roton egg smell. I was told by a mechanic it might be my cytalist converter but when checked it passed.

Takata recall. Was unaware of fuel system recall. The dealership never informed me that this was ever an issue. Started smelling a weird smell coming from the exhaust when I accelerate.

Car has a recall but I do not think they were done by dealership history record has been purge. A lot of safety issue with this car.

I have contacted my local Lexus dealership and cannot get any help with the takata recall, door panel recalls, and any other recall issue. I have been trying for the last year and half.

This vehicle went into the Lexus dealership for a recall on the fuel system. After receiving it back from the dealership, the vehicle shuts off completely without notice. The vehicle has been back to the dealership for repairs and each time it is returns, within a week the vehicle shuts down. As of October, the dealership has received almost $8000. 00 for repairs. This vehicle is becoming a death trap. It would shut down after stopping at a stop light or stop sign, but the last two times, it has shut off while driving. Once on the interstate. We are asking that something be done immediately, this car is unsafe to drive and the dealership continues to find other issues to make money, but has failed to repair the issue caused by the recall repair. Lexus headquarters has been notified. The maryland attorney general has been requested to intervene and assist us with this issue. Your help would truly be appreciated.

My husband was driving on I 295 in maryland, when the car suddenly shutdown. He stated he was going approximately 55 miles per hour and was fortunate enough to be able to maneuver from the middle lane to the side of the road. This is not the first time the vehicle shutdown completely. The previous incidents occurred after stopping at a stop sign or signal. The vehicle has been to the Lexus dealership in maryland for repairs, but each time(at least 4 now) within a 6-7 days, the vehicle shuts down. These incidents did not start until after the dealership took care of the fuel recall, April of 2015.

I lost power steering and very hard to turn the steering wheel. Ps light is came on the dash.

Since I bought this vehicle in 2010 I have been experiencing "raw fuel" smell and "catalytic converter" smell occasionally. It seems to happen most often when a small hill is climbed and when going down subsequently. I mentioned it to the dealer a few times but they said it was the wind! I never had these strong smells with any other car that I owned.

"takata recall" the second day I bought my car it has been giving me problems. I have had to replace my engine/motor not long after I purchased my car. I'm still having the same problems with my car and new motor. It runs hot and I have brought it to 6 different mechanic as well as to the Lexus dealership multiple times and I have had to pay out of pocket for a lot of things. I also went on Lexus. Com and found out that my car is a lemon buy back and was never told by the dealership I bought it from or the Lexus dealership in baton rouge louisiana that it was a lemon. I had to fund out on my own. It very wrong that I bought a car and not told my anyone how the car is a lemon.

The contact owns a 2007 Lexus is 250. The contact stated that there was a progressing failure for years in which there were strong fumes of fuel emitting into the interior of the vehicle. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the dealer for NHTSA campaign id numbers: 11v029000 (fuel system, gasoline), 14v647000 (fuel system, gasoline) and was unable to determine what parts were replaced by the dealer. The dealer diagnosed that there was a potential fuel pressure sensor leak and that the fuel pressure sensor may need to be replaced but the dealer did not replace the part. The mechanic indicated the sealing property of the gasket was resealed near the the fuel delivery pipe. The contact was concerned that the failure was only sealed and that the fuel delivery pipe and the fuel pressure sensors were not replaced. The contact indicated that within a week of the repair the srong fumes of fuel continued. The vehicle was not repaired from the recalls and the contact was waiting for a response from the manufacturer to take the vehicle to an authorized dealer. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.

The engine upon cold start up makes a rattling noise and is very loud. Lexus in September recalled the Lexus is 350 for the same reason and they said the car was unsafe to drive. However, I called Lexus customer satisfaction and they diagnosed it as the same issue at my dealership, but would not correct the problem. Also, back in March the vehicle smelt like raw gasoline, so I took it to the dealer and it was leaking gas in the engine compartment. The dealer told me due to the gas vapor, which is extremely flammable that the car could have exploded. However, Lexus would not cover this safety issue under warranty either. This vehicle has been a death trap from day one. It has also been recalled for the faulty gas pedal, brakes working improperly, other fuel line issues other than I mentioned, and even the windshield wipers.
