I purchased a certified pre-owned 2006 Lexus 430, including 2 additional warranties, from Lexus chandler in may 2009 upon which I experience an inability to start and unlock the steering wheel eight times within the first two months and intermittently months after. If I sit for an hour the system will unlock itself and will start. Dealer refuses to involve itself and claims it is unable to repair. I took to another dealer which stated they could disconnect the anti-lock mechanism but then the car would not have any security functions. I have contacted the state attorney generals office which they have contacted the dealer but no resolution has been provided at this time. I have written a letter to my senator, john mccain, about the issue and am waiting a response. I feel this is a safety concern since it leaves me stranded. Updated 04/09/10. The consumer also stated the vehicle needed a new battery and tires. Updated 09/21/10.
