Recall on my Lexus tx, where originally I was working with the dealership until a remedy was established but it’s been 4 months and still nothing. Then the Lexus of Orlando dealership has lied and treated me like crap because I don’t feel safe in a car that has a high ticket price. Refusing to do anything to help me get out of the car with statements such as”you’re going to have to eat the depreciation” this is sickening to know I have to deal with this, not to mention my insurance company has threatened to drop coverage on the car!

The manufacturer, Lexus, is unable to remedy an airbag safety recall (24LB05/24LA05) for my vehicle in a timely manner. Additionally, they are unwilling to provide a comparable 7-seat loaner. Our insurance has also threatened to drop coverage for the vehicle as it is unsafe to drive. In the meantime, we are unable to drive or sell the vehicle.

I am filing a complaint about my new Lexus TX350. I purchased this car new and then began reading about a recall. I finally received information from Lexus about the recall, several weeks after it had made the news. There is no date set for a fix. Is there any recourse for owners of an expensive vehicle that is no longer in production? Thank you for your time, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

When I shift my car to get it in gear the knob comes unscrewed and have difficulty getting the car back to drive. This happens especially when putting it in neutral for a car wash. The knob is not securely tightened and if you try to tighten it is not in the correct position. It happens frequently and has almost caused an accident several times.

Driver and passenger Curtain airbags may not deploy as intended. The vehicle would not have been purchased and driven around had this been known at the time of purchase. Lexus has no remedy and this is completely Unacceptable.

Lexus has failed to provide a timely repair for this simple recall issue, and has not provided any remedy or free loaner car. Their dealers rep has said to just "drive with the windows up, and you will be fine".

Severe safety issue! Pulled the vehicle into the driveway after a drive and put the vehicle in park and turned the car off. With key still in the vehicle, exited vehicle, closed driver door and went to open drivers-side rear passenger door where 2 year old baby was in car seat. Before being able to open the rear door, the car went dead and locked down all the doors (key is still inside the car). Could not get into car through any of the doors, including rear hatch. Tried the manual back up door handles (since this vehicle has electronic door releases), but none of them worked. All the while, baby is crying in the car and it's more than 85F outside. In panic, call Lexus roadside assistance. They advise that help may take 90 minutes and with baby in vehicle, we should call 911. After call to 911, fire and police arrive. Fireman tries all manual backup door handles (which are there in case battery dies and electronic release don't work) then takes crowbar to the door (bent door frame and A pillar, and other damage to car). Door still not open! Door is later opened by service tech and we successfully get baby out. Had another incident where after drive, put vehicle in park and turned off vehicle. The vehicle power immediately went dead (no lights, no ignition, nothing) and I couldn't exit car even when using the manual door handles. Had to sit and wait in car for a while until power came back to get out. This is extremely dangerous because someone could get stuck inside the car in traffic or somewhere else and be in death box unable to exit. Or someone, including kids, could get locked without. The physical key inserted under the door handle tab and using the manual override handles still doesn't work - it's an extremely dangerous design flaw. There was a police report made by Franklin Park, Illinois PD. We don't have a copy of the report yet.

The recall was not communicated to me as consumer, when i saw online I was notified and then when called dealer i purchased car i was told ‘we only sell call not part of manufacture process call corporate” and after calling lexus corporate i was told i could get loaner car since i dont feel safe but the dealer on the call with corporate said “if not front air bag its not big deal” for a saftey recall. I told corporate since this is recorded call they have proof of the dealer service associate saying this to me and corporate said just please hang up and we will notify regional offices. I have yet to hear back, i dont think i should be told this recall isnt big deal if they have put hold on selling this car to public nor should be told its okay to drive. I would be given either loaner but dealer does not want to provide this or 55 a day but there is no lexus anywhere you can get for 55 dollars a day. There is not set remedy nor notification to the customer. This is beyond frustrating and do not feel safe by this car and dealer is telling me this recall is not big deal which is very inaccurate and misleading.

On 3 different occurrences. Regarding rear-left gate foot sensor. Vehicle rear lift-gate as closed when feet are planted on ground while unloading groceries from the vehicle. This claim has also been confirm with dealership as Diagnostics Technician was able to duplicate issue. First incident hit spouse on the head. Second time hit myself. 3rd was able to dodge lift-gate closing down. Treasure Coast Lexus Diagnostics technician advised to disable feature and when needed to enable. That doesn't resolve the safety issue as the occurrence of lift-gate closing could still occur when feature is enabled. New vehicle purchase 5/21/2024. Its at dealership waiting for repairs.

The car gives out from a stopped position, when hitting the accelerator. As if the car stalls without turning off. It’s happened at least 3 times. Dealership is telling me nothing is wrong with the car.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
There is significant vibration coming from the driver-side side mirror. Very noticeable on the freeway. As a result, the mirror appears blurry and at certain times of the day, light is reflecting back into my eyes which is dangerous. The other side mirror and rear view are ok. Something seems to be wrong with the driver side.
