Oil cooling line failed when driving. I was not aware that it was having an issue; the oil completely cleared the engine, and this could have seized the engine while I was driving. The only way I figured it out, I stopped the car at some point and saw a pool of oil under the car. I called aaa and they came to tow the car, and checked the engine, and told me that there was no oil in the engine.
The fuel delivery line is leaking, car will still run then quit however, interior and exterior smells like gas any slight spark could cause a fire. You can see fuel along the under carriage of the engine. I found Lexus has a recall for a leaking fuel delivery line, however I don't see my vehicle listed. Please investigate why my 2007 Lexus Rx400h did not get added to this recall list. Let me know if my vehicle could be added. Thank you for your time.
On November 19, 2021, I purchased a vehicle from cars lane on hanover road in annapolis maryland. Upon driving back to my residence in gaithersburg I noticed that there was significant shaking when the vehicle was driven over 60 miles an hour. I notified the dealership and seemed helpful at first. I took the car to a good year facility and pay to have an alignment. That seem to fix one of the issues however there were several more and many more I was later to find out. As well, the vehicle was also hard to steer when it came to trying to back up and turn the steering wheel. It also made a loud whining noise. I contacted the dealership again and told them of this problem. I have been out to the dealership several times upon realizing they do not have a mechanic on duty and whoever passed inspection on this car should be investigated. There is no way that this car should've passed inspection. The last time I went to the dealership upon talking with the owner I was told to bring the car in and they would take a look at it. Looking at it was all they did. I noticed that eric was on the phone with the warranty people trying to determine if the items that I complained about were covered under the warranty. The woman on the phone informed him that they only covered a certain point of the cost. Now I have come to find out that this car has over $17,000 worth of work to be done. I would like to make a formal complaint about this dealership, its representative eric cole and the mechanic that allegedly passed this vehicle for inspection. I welcome the opportunity to speak with you and supply you with all the necessary documentation concerning this matter. I have included a copy of the estimate from the Lexus dealership in rockville, maryland. It is my honest opinion that this car should've never been sold and have lied to me in the process and to throw the paperwork at me and tell me to take care of myself is unacceptable. They should be held accountable, fined, or shut down.
Tl- the contact owns a 2007 Lexus Rx350. The contact's wife stated that upon accelerating the vehicle after exiting a roundabout, an unknown dust substance began to emit from the exhaust pipe without warning. The contact's wife drove to a gas station and discovered that the oil was empty. The contact then refilled the oil but by the next day, the oil had completely leaked out of the vehicle. Due to the failure, the contact had the vehicle towed to Lexus of maplewood(3000 us-61, maplewood, mn 55109) where they initially discovered metal shavings in the oil line. The oil line was replaced; however, they also discovered that the cam gears in upper engine were defective and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer had been notified of the failure and stated that they would call the contact; the contact had yet to hear from the manufacturer. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 83,000. Jo.
