| Vehicle Speed Control problems |
When automatic height control system check warning light comes on, both Lx570 traction control system and abs behave strangely. This happened three time in one day. When the vehicle was in standing in an uphill to join the road, during acceleration, traction control system light starts to splash, vehicle would not move and hesitates. One has to drive slowly to avoid wheels spinning and making noise. When exiting from one highway and trying to join another highway in an uphill exit, when the brake is applied gently to control my speed, vehicle came to abrupt stop surprising myself and the 4 vehicles behind so much so that behind vehicles has to swerve hitting my car. Never seen this problem before.
While driving back to the bay area from tahoe, our Lx570 continued to accelerate on the freeway even though all pressure to the accelerator was lifted. I pulled up on the accelerator and adjusted the floor mats to make sure nothing was resting on the accelerator to not avail. A few moments later after applying pressure to the break while accelerating, the acceleration subsided. I brought the vehicle into Lexus of marin for inspection but was told that they had no reported incidents with the Lx570 accelerators and that the vehicle was operating within Lexus specifications.
