On Saturday, August 22, 2026, while traveling on the highway with my two toddler-aged children in the vehicle, the temperature gauge entered the red zone and the vehicle automatically reduced power due to overheating. This forced me to navigate a power-reduced vehicle on a highway with minor children — a serious safety hazard. This incident occurred just five days after my vehicle was in the Sewell Lexus service department on August 17, 2026 for its 10,000-mile service and a warranty repair to the rear evaporator case (a known design defect). The proximity of this safety incident to that service visit raises significant concerns about whether the August 17 service contributed to or caused the overheating event.

Air conditioner condensers being subject to road hazards, rocks/debri. Causing to lose all refrigerant. Multiple claims on Lexus forums. Seems to be a design flaw.

We were traveling 80 miles west of Fargo ND on I94 when we heard a loud bang. It became clear immediately from the wind noise that the sunroof had broken. We did not hear or see that anything was dropped on it. Thankfully the shade was closed. We pulled off at the next possible stop to inspect and noted a large whole in the sunroof and that the glass bowed outward suggesting the explosion was an outward force rather than an item falling on the car. There were no warning lights etc. prior to this happening. This was a very frightening experience and had the shade not been closed our family including young son could have been hurt or even blinded from the falling glass. We called the dealer (we only had the car for 3 weeks) and they were able to get the car in right away to look at it but cannot guarantee the window is covered under warranty.

On Juky 7, 2026 @ 10:30pm a catastrophic safety failure occurred involving a 2026 Lexus TX 350. The vehicle experienced a complete electrical and software failure while an occupant (my mother) was inside. All electronic door release buttons failed simultaneously, completely locking the occupant inside the vehicle. The emergency manual double-pull override mechanism on the interior door handles failed to mechanically release or open any of the doors. Concurrently, the climate control system locked on high heat, causing the cabin temperature to rise rapidly. Due to the total entrapment and extreme heat, the occupant began losing consciousness, and her blood pressure spiked to a dangerous level of 188/100. Family members outside the vehicle were unable to open the doors or bypass the electronic locks from the exterior. Emergency services were called to the scene. The local Fire Department had to perform an emergency extraction to rescue the occupant from the vehicle. The occupant required immediate medical attention for severe heat stress and a hypertensive crisis.
I purchased my vehicle 2026 Lexus tx350 from Lexus of Manchester located in [XXX]. As soon as I left the lot I noticed the hood would shake violently and almost pop up which signaled the safety latch alarm. The alarm would signal multiple times throughout a highway trip. Most noticeable around 70 mph. The dealership was helpful and set up an autobody repair where they added adhesive into the hood. Unfortunately the hood flutter is still present and it’s only a matter of time before the adhesive wears down. After conducting research Lexus issued a bulletin repair acknowledging the fault in engineering regarding the aluminum light hoods. The hood is clearly to light and this is an obvious engineering defect which should signal recalls. I have read thousands of similar cases and Toyota is failing to take accountability of this problem. They need to replace the hoods instead they are refusing to acknowledge this is a recall and sneakily sending vehicles out to autobody shops. I have read the Lexus GX and TX both have the same problem. It is not safe to have a hood flutter like that it puts way to much strain on the hood safety latches and eventually they will fail. I do find it absurd and ridiculous that a brand new 70,000 SUV has such a problem. My hope is submitting this complaint it helps force Toyota do the right thing and take accountability for their engineering defect.
