2010 Lexus RX350 Owner Complaints

The contact owns a 2010 LEXUS RX350. The contact stated while driving 65 mph, she saw light white smoke floating through the air which she initially assumed came from the vehicle ahead of her. As she exited the highway and came to a stop, the low oil pressure warning light illuminated with an abnormal knocking sound coming from the engine. The contact pulled over and called her brother for assistance. Upon inspection, the contact's brother discovered that there was no oil in the vehicle, even though the vehicle had received an oil change five days prior. The contact called the local dealer who offered to tow the vehicle to the dealer to be inspected. The contact declined the tow, and instead had the vehicle towed to Lexus of Pleasanton (4345 Rosewood Dr, Pleasanton, CA 94588) where the mechanic discovered that the engine oil cooler pipe was fractured. The contact discovered an unknown recall on the vehicle. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The contact was informed that the Vin was not under recall or warranty. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 199,000.

MY FARM IS 1/2 MILE OFF WELD COUNTY ROAD 16 IN KEENESBURG COLORADO. THERE IS A GRAVEL DRIVE AROUND THE HOUSE TO A SHORT CONCRETE DRIVEWAY IN FRONT OF THE GARAGE. WHEN WE DRIVE ONTO THE CONCRETE PORTION, WE ARE ANGLED NORTH EAST TOWARD THE GARAGE DOOR AND HAVE TO BACK UP A SHORT DISTANCE TO HEAD THE CAR EAST TO ENTER THE GARAGE. WE DRIVE VERY SLOW THROUGH THE YARD AS WE HAVE ANIMALS TO WATCH OUT FOR AND MAKE A SLOW ENTRY TOWARDS THE CONCRETE DRIVEWAY. AS SHE TURNED AROUND THE HOUSE TOWARD THE DRIVEWAY THE CAR SEEMED TO BE GOING FASTER THAN NORMAL AND SHE TOOK HER FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND EASED ON THE BRAKE BUT THE CAR DID NOT SLOW AND SHE FELT THE ACCELERATOR WAS PULLING HER FORWARD FASTER THAN SHE WANTED. THE BRAKE PEDAL DID NOT SLOW THE CAR. THE CAR ANGLED ACROSS THE CONCRETE DRIVEWAY, NARROWLY MISSING THE CORNER OF THE GARAGE AND STRUCK A TREE ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE HOUSE. THE IMPACT DID NOT DEPLOY THE AIR BAG AND MY WIFE HAD NO INJURY. HER SEAT BELT WAS FASTENED UNTIL SHE SHUT THE CAR OFF AND EXITED THE CAR. I NOTIFIED USAA MY INSURER AND LATER SPOKE TO SEVERAL MECHANICS ABOUT REPAIRS AND THE PROBLEM MY WIFE ENCOUNTERED JUST PRIOR TO THE ACCIDENT. ONE MECHANIC TOLD ME OF A REPORT OF A SITUATION MUCH LIKE THIS AND SAID TO CALL LEXUS AND SEE IF THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL ON THIS MAKE OF AUTOMOBILE. I CALLED A LEXUS DEALER IN FIRESTONE COLORADO. I GAVE THE VIN NUMBER TO HIM AND HE SAID HIS RECORDS SHOWED THIS MODEL YEAR HAD BEEN RECALLED FOR A PROBLEM WITH THE ACCELERATOR BUT NO RECORDS SHOWED REPAIRS WERE MADE. I TOLD HIM I PURCHASED THIS 2010 MODEL CAR IN 2016 AS A USED CAR AND HAD NO WAY OF KNOWING IF THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL. I HAVE NOT TAKEN THE CAR TO BE REPAIRED BUT AN ADJUSTER DID MAKE A REPORT YESTERDAY (THURSDAY JUNE 6). I HAVE NO RESULTS BUT THE ADJUSTER SAID THE DAMAGE WAS EXTENSIVE AND HE WAS A BIT SURPRISED THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY.

OIL HOSE LEAK. OIL PIPE WHICH CONNECTS TO THE ENGINE. WHILE DRIVING THE HOSE WILL LEAK AND YOU WILL NEVER BE ADVISED THAT THE OIL IS LOW. "A SERVICE BULLETIN" WENT OUT TO REPLACE THE PLASTIC HOSE TO METAL. WHEN YOU TAKE THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY TRY TO TELL YOU ITS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE BUT AN ENGINE NOT RECEIVING OIL AND YOUR TRUCK JUST BREAKING DOWN IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

THE STEERING COLUMN RATTLES WHENEVER YOU GO OVER A BUMP. IT SHAKES AND MAKES A LOUDER CLINGING NOISE ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS IS A DAILY OCCURENCE. THE MANUFACTURER ACKNOWLEDGED ISSUE BUT CLAIMS IT HAS BEEN FIXED ONCE. SAME PROBLEM REOCCURS AGAIN. CLEARLY A DEFFECTIVE PART. MANUFACTURER OFFERED A REPLACEMANT PART BUT REFUSE TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR INSTALLATION COST. I OFFERED TO COVER HALF OF THE INSTALLATION COST. MANUFACTURER REFUSED MY OFFER. SENT AN APPEAL LETTER OF RECONSIDERATION TWICE BUT WAS REJECTED. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THIS IS A MANUFACTURING / DEFECTIVE PART PROBLEM. REGARDLESS OF HOW OLD OR HOW MANY MILES THE VEHICLE HAS. IF SOMETHING IS FIXED ONCE AND SAME PROBLEM REOCCURS AGAIN, THEN IT'S NOT FIXED. CONCERN OF MY FAMILY SAFETY AND VERY DISTURBED ABOUT THE MANUFACTURERS ATTITUDE. PLEASE KINDLY HELP.

MY CAR STARTED LEAKING OIL ALL OVER MY DRIVEWAY AND INTO THE GARAGE, AS SOON AS I REALIZED WHAT HAPPENED I DROVE IT TO THE DEALER. DEALER SAID FRONT OIL COOLER HOSES WERE LEAKING AND THAT I WAS NOT THE FIRST. DEALER ASKED LEXUS TO RECALL AND WERE REFUSED. THIS DEFECT IS ALL OVER THE INTERNET SINCE THE COMPANY USED RUBBER HOSE INSTEAD OF METAL WHICH THEY USED TO USE AND SHOULD HAVE CONTINUED TO USE. THE PART WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BUT MY DRIVEWAY AND GARAGE FLOOR ARE RUINED. THE COMPANY 1-800 NUMBER SERVICE PERSON WAS RUDE. I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED THIS PART WAS A PROBLEM. OTHER DRIVERS ARE BEING STRANDED ON ROADWAYS AND THEIR ENGINES ARE BLOWING UP. PLEASE HELP. THIS NEEDS A CLASS ACTION SUIT OR A FORCED RECALL.

WHILE SLOWLY PULLING INTO PARKING SPACE IN THE PARKING LOT OF THE LOCAL POST OFFICE, WITH FOOT ON BRAKE PEDAL CAR QUICKLY ACCELERATED FORWARD WITH ENGINE REAVING. CAR SHOT FORWARD GOING OVER CONCRETE CAR STOPS TOWARD A CREEK AND SMASHED INTO A STAND OF TREES. DRIVER AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. COMPLETE FRONT OF VEHICLE INCLUDING HOOD AND WINDSHIELD WERE SMASHED AND DRIVEN INTO ENGINE COMPARTMENT. I BELIEVE THIS IS A CASE OF UNINTENDED ACCELERATION CAUSED BY THE VEHICLE MALFUNCTIONING. THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE DOCUMENTED COMPLAINTS OF THIS HAPPENING IN LEXUS RX 350 VEHICLES. THE FLOOR MAT WAS SECURELY IN PLACE AND HAD NOT MOVED AND THE DRIVER INSISTS HER FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE PETAL AT ALL TIMES. THERE WERE NO OBSTRUCTIONS IN OR AROUND THE ACCELERATOR PETAL OR THE BRAKE. PARAMEDICS WERE CALLED TO SCENE AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED.

DRIVER WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT, JUST ROLLING TO A STOP WITH HER FOOT ON THE BRAKE. THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED INTO A BRICK WALL AND A TREE. THE FRONT BUMPER OF THE CAR WAS SMASHED AND THE FRAME WAS BENT. AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY AS IT SHOULD HAVE. OWNER CONTACTED LEXUS LEGAL DEPARTMENT THE NEXT DAY AND FILED A CLAIM. 16 DAYS LATER A THIRD PARTY INVESTIGATOR RECOVERED THE DATA FROM THE EVENT DATA RECORDER. IT HAS BEEN 50 DAYS SINCE THE CLAIM WAS FILED AND WE GOT A LETTER TODAY FROM TOYOTA STATING "NO DEFECTS WERE IDENTIFIED!" THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. TOYOTA SETTLED A 1.1 BILLION DOLLAR CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT REGARDING "UNINTENDED ACCELERATION" CASES. OBVIOUSLY THERE IS A BIG PROBLEM. WE WILL BE FOLLOWING UP WITH LEGAL REPRESENTATION. IN THE MEAN TIME THE CAR SITS IN THE GARAGE, WHILE WE MAKE PAYMENTS ON A CAR THAT IS TOTALLY UNSAFE TO DRIVE!

WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH STEADY ON HIGHWAY THE CAR SUDDENLY SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AND COASTED TO A STOP. THERE WAS NO ABNORMAL SOUND ASSOCIATED. WHILE STATIONARY I TRIED SHIFTING INTO REVERSE OR LOW GEAR WITH NO RESPONSE. I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTED IT, THE CAR WOULD SHIFT INTO DRIVE AND RETURNED TO NORMAL OPERATION FOR A SHORT PERIOD AND THEN SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AGAIN. AFTER MULTIPLE START/STOPS I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR HOME AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE NEAREST LEXUS DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY FOR EVALUATION. IN THE WRONG TRAFFIC CONDITIONS (CONGESTED HIGHWAY OR UNSTEADY TERRAIN) THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN, ESPECIALLY IF MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE WHEN IT HAPPENED. AFTER 2 DAYS OF NO RESPONSE I WAS TOLD THAT THE FAULT CODES INDICATED THAT I NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION (AT A COST OF $6900), THERE WAS NO WAY IT COULD BE REPAIRED. NO OTHER DETAILS OF THE DAMAGE TO THE TRANSMISSION WERE PROVIDED. THIS IS A 2010 LEXUS RX 350 WITH 89,500 MILES AND HAS BEEN MAINTAINED REGULARLY. FOR THIS VEHICLE, BASED ON THE MILEAGE AND CARE PUT INTO IT, I BELIEVE THERE WAS A DEFECTIVE PART IN THE TRANSMISSION BUT CANNOT VERIFY IT. I WAS NOT OFFERED ANY COMPENSATION (BECAUSE IT WAS OFFICIALLY OUT OF WARRANTY) AND HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED (TRANSMISSION REPLACED) BY AN INDEPENDENT MAINTENANCE SHOP. THE SECOND SHOP CONFIRMED A MECHANICAL FAILURE WITHIN THE TRANSMISSION, REQUIRING REPLACEMENT.
