Air bag failure light on, air conditioning does not work, broken or cracked board almost everywhere, air conditioning does not work, maintenance light always on despite mechanical overhaul.

2 Body problem

Failure Date: 06/13/2016

I went to get something out of the back of my Lexus, which was parked in my garage, and the handle to the rear door latch is "melted". I went to manually open the rear power door and the plastic or rubber that was covering the manual button was melted and sticky. I keep my car in my garage when I'm not running errands or at work. Not sure when it "melted" cause I usually use the power door button on my remote to open the rear door. I have read other complaints with the same issue.

3 Body problem

Failure Date: 11/13/2015

While driving straight on the road with no cars near by and no overpasses nor anything over head, I heard an extremely loud pop. My sun roof shattered into millions of pieces. The sun roof is still in tacked but cracked. I pulled over and inspected the car. The sun roof glass is lifted vertically as though the pressure due to the temperature from the outside and the inside of the car caused this to happen.

4 Body problem

Failure Date: 06/11/2012

I parked my car in a parking spot to do some errands and, before I could put the car in park and turn the car off, the car shot forward and went through some shrubs, across a walkway, and finally ran straight into a brick wall of one of the stores I was going to. Several bricks fell off the building and , needless to say, I was as shaken up as the building. Since there is a wide walkway between the shrubs and the building, if anyone had been going to or from the store, that person or persons would,in all likelihood, have been killed. There were several witnesses who saw my car pull into the space, come to a stop, and then fly across the shrubs, sidewalk and into the building. My foot never touched the accelerator at the time of the incident and, according to the company that repaired the car, there was no need to adjust/replace the floormat or the accelerator or the brakes.
