While driving on highway, tire blew out while driving. They say cause tire was wearing need alignment. Bought the car preowned April 2019 and this happen November 2019. Replaced tires in November 2019 and alignment. Tires are wearing in the inner again since March 2020. Lexus said the manufacturer made these is cars a certain way that the tires will always wear. It is a safety issue that a tire can't handle the suspension performance of this model car for only couple months and than your tire blow out while driving due to having to replace them every 5-6 months. Customers were not made known of these with models as old as mine 2015.

The vehicle is all wheel drive. Both front tires have excessive wear on the inside. This wear is so severe that the cords were showing on the inside edge of the tires, while the remaining portion of the tire looks normal. The tires needed replacement after 10,000 miles. Lexus had performed an alignment and all scheduled services. When I questioned the dealer about the excessive wear (Lexus of warwick, ri), I was told that this was normal and the car originally came with a factory notice informing the purchaser that the inside of the front tires were prone to excessive wear. I purchased the vehicle as a factory certified vehicle with 20,000 miles on it and did not receive any notice, nor was it included in the operator's manual.
Lexus is vehicles are subject to excessive inner tire wear. Vehicles serviced at Lexus dealership are not properly inspected. Even after providing proper maintenance by the dealership such as tire alignment. The aggressive camber applied these Lexus vehicles can possibly cause accidents because divers are unaware of the excessive wear and often times are not told about tire issues after taking their vehicle to the dealership for service. Personally speaking I found my self with this situation, when driving home on the freeway. A vehicle in front of me drop some chairs they were carrying , I have to conduct an evasive maneuver. The car felt a bit weird after arriving at home. Upon inspecting my tires they show extreme tire wear. The next day I arrived at my local Lexus dealership and the service representative advise me that tires needed to be replaces. The vehicle had about 16k since the last tire replacement. I mentioned to him that the tire wear was unacceptable. The service rep mention to me that Lexus is vehicles are notorious for excessive tire wear and brake wear. My issue was not with the purchase of the tires but with the lack of notification of the excessive tire wear. March of 2018 was my last service to this vehicle they provided an oil change and a vehicle alignment. The service rep mentioned that checking tires and checking brakes was not part of the inspection process they provide their customers. I was shocked and appalled specially since they know about the tire wear issues. Checking tires should be their number one priority if they know these issues are persistent on this vehicles.

The problem that many Is250 Lexus owners are having with the front tires wearing out or tearing from the inside. I have found that the issue is the suspension where the front tire and a cotter pin meet every time you hit a bump or pot hole. This has caused great damage to both front tires to the extent where you can see the steel belt. Lexus has gone as far as to blame the tire manufacture and has not taken responsibility for the problem. I ask that this issue be investigated before a life is lost due to negligence.

"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.
