The car was taken into Lexus under warranty January 2026. There a loud noise coming from the car when it is going down the road. Lexus tried to say it must be the tires. The car was under 3 years old. I replaced the front tires any way. There cars noise even louder and it was not fixed. I feel the car is un-safe. The car currently has 40,000 miles.

On May 13, 2026, while traveling at approximately 31 mph under normal driving conditions, a critical right-front suspension or steering component suddenly suffered a catastrophic structural failure on its own.

Within approximately three weeks of purchasing this vehicle, the blind-spot monitoring and rear traffic sensor systems were found to be completely inoperative. All dashboard warning lights related to these systems were illuminated the night before discovery, then went dark the following morning.

The power steering system is bad I have replaced it 3 times right now I’m scared to drive the car anywhere

Vehicle suddenly stalled in traffic, check engine light illuminated and lost power.

The Pre-Collision System (PCS) activated twice in the last couple of weeks with absolutely no reason. Both times it activated with transmission in reverse and vehicle in process of backing up. But there was no vehicle or person within the vicinity. The sudden braking startled the driver and passengers giving concern about the viability of the vehicle operating in a safe manner for the rest of the trip. The problem has not been seen or inspected by the dealer or service personnel.
