My 2024 Lexus Rx 500h experiences an intermittent failure to respond when I press the accelerator pedal. During these episodes, pressing the pedal does not produce the expected acceleration, making the vehicle’s response unpredictable. Lexus service bulletin l-sb-0026-25 was performed on my vehicle to address the issue. However, the accelerator nonresponse continues after that repair. The issue remains unresolved. I am concerned that an unexpected inability to accelerate could leave my vehicle exposed to approaching traffic when entering a roadway or crossing an intersection. This is a safety concern because I cannot reliably count on the vehicle to accelerate when needed. I request that NHTSA review this recurring loss of accelerator response, including cases where the condition persists after the software update. The underlying cause of my vehicle’s continued problem has not been established.
Was pulling into parking spot when car went haywire and started accelerating on its own. It would not stop until it has hit 5 cars and crashed into a cement wall. The brakes did not stop the acceleration. This occurred at the exact same time there was an incoming call which was not answered. The airbags did not deploy. The car appears to be totaled and has been towed to a state farm affiliated auto yard. There were no indicator lights that something was wrong but the Lexus app showed 5 warnings that came in to my text messages same day. These 5 alerts are indicative of exactly what occurred.
