The contact owns a 2023 Lexus LX 600. The contact stated that the rearview back up camera image displayed a distorted image.

Description of Incident: This is a recurring safety defect that has occurred multiple times from August 2023 to February 2026. The following description refers to the most severe incidents: 1. NATURE OF DEFECT: The vehicle experienced a sudden "Limp Mode" event where all dashboard warning lights illuminated simultaneously, followed by an immediate loss of propulsion while in motion. Subsequently, the vehicle suffered from a dangerous 3-second acceleration lag/delay. This 2023 Lexus LX 600 creates a life-threatening risk on public highways, as the driver cannot reliably control the vehicle's speed or power to avoid collisions. 2. MANUFACTURER’S ADMISSION: The vehicle has been presented to authorized Lexus dealerships. While the dealership could not provide a permanent fix, the manufacturer’s own internal tracking system now explicitly confirms: "REMEDY: NOT AVAILABLE." This is a formal admission by Lexus/Toyota that the vehicle has a catastrophic system failure with no known fix. 3. REQUESTED ACTION: Lexus/Toyota has refused to repurchase the vehicle, forcing me to drive a dangerous asset they admit they cannot repair. I request that NHTSA immediately initiate a safety investigation into this loss of propulsion and acceleration lag issue for the 2023 Lexus LX 600, especially given the "No Remedy" status. A mandatory recall is warranted.

my problem occurs intermittenly, it occurs when i am idling at a stop. when i have to accelerate from the stop the car will lurch forward and die for approximately 3 seconds. It will then restart and drive normally, however the stopping in the middle of oncoming traffic is potentially life threatening. It has occurred approx 8 times since i bought the car in June 2023. I had the ECO recall done and it also occurred shortly after that. I have taken it back to the dealer and they could not recreate the problem. It occurs after idling and waiting and then accelerating quickly to merge.

When I applying breaks when coming to stop, hears abnormal humming noise. Sound appears to be coming from driver front seat by breaks. Every time I apply the brakes, I hear the motor actuating, and I'm so anxious and worried that the brakes might not work. The brake is a life-threatening device, so I'm very anxious. Currently, Lexus says that it is normal to make sounds and there is nothing wrong with safety, but this is not normal. And it is a brake, so it cannot be normal for safety. When I first bought the car, I didn't hear anything at all. They keep saying there's no safety issue, but I don't know when it's going to happen and I'm so nervous I remember a few years ago, a Toyota Lexus part failure to activate its brakes, killing a whole family. I hope you investigate thoroughly so that it doesn't happen again. Thank you for your hard work

I received notice over a year ago that the engine in my Lexus was defective and failure could cause damage, injury or death because the engine would seize up. We drive in rural areas, often outside of cell service. We are [XXX] and to be stranded, especially at night, would be very dangerous. I have made several calls to dealers and Lexus in Plano, and no one is willing to do anything about the problem they have created. They offer nothing.
