Tl- the contact owns a 2002 Lexus Sc430. The contact had received the recall repair for the air bag. The vehicle had extensive interior and some exterior damages after the repairs. The damages were to the dashboard, damaged the paint, scratched the tinted windows, the hood, leather seats in which the authorized dealer had agreed to fix. The air bag inflator assembly kit and cosmetic damages had been repaired. The cosmetic damages had been caused by the mechanics who had repaired the vehicle. The sensor light had illuminated at random after the recall repair. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 71000. Dyd.

Body problem #2

The hardtop will not go down on the one side - apparently the motors that bring down the hardtop can burn out, causing the issue. For higher-end car, this should not happen so soon. Dealer indicated this was a $3,000-plus repair. I have since been driving a Sc430 coupe!.
