I purchased my brand new lexus es 350 less than three weeks ago. The car has less than 500 miles. The car was sitting in my garage for three days and now is completely dead. Had to call road side assistance. The battery was completely dead and the car could not start. The issue with the battery is not due to any lights being on. The car lights were completely off but battery drained anyway. I just found out from other lexus owners that this is a flaw with lexus cars. The battery runs out due to some malfunction.

The contact felt that she should not have to use hand commands and felt unsafe when doing so. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure and current mileages were 1,100.

On july 14, 2014, i was driving at 70 miles per hour in the middle lane of a busy interstate when the engine of our lexus gs 350 unexpectedly shut down. Despite heavy traffic, i was able to pull over, without incident, into the median emergency lane where the car came to a halt. I called the dealership and was advised by the service department that it would have it towed to them. I was also informed that no loaner vehicle was available. Because i was en route to pick up family arriving soon at the airport, i restarted the car and waited several minutes to ensure the engine kept running.i was able to proceed, pick up family, and return. The following day, the dealership picked up the car for evaluation.the cause of the engine shut down has not been determined at this time.

Continuedproblem with the brakes loud growling noise when light foot pressure is applied or let up and the car is stopped.was informed by the dealer that is normal for all new lexus models.it appears to me that the dealer does not want to address the problem.
Rear brakes were sticking and squeaking.dealer inspected and found rear caliper slides seized causing rear brake pads to get worn to 0 mm.car only has 12k miles.when asked why, was told, because you don't drive enough miles per year.

As the car was pulling out of the driving spot and making its way, severe black ice was preventing control. The car seemed to have activated some anti-skidding mechanism. The car was stopped then. From a resting, zero speed position, the car slid on black ice about a foot or less and was stopped by a side impact between the right wheel and the curb. The car was then driven back a few feet to its parking spot and parked because of weather conditions. Upon clearing and driving again, something wrong seemed to have happened to the steering. The car was driven slowly and carefully to the dealer who determined that there was damage to the tie rods (bending) and the steering column, damage in excess of $5,200. This is completely unjustified by the event and points to a dangerous flaw in the car - either design or material. An inspector pulled the crash data from the car but lexus is not available to explain it to us, indicating it may take 30 days for their analysis. In the meantime, the lexus dealer needs his loaner car back. Most importantly, this car endangers lives and the model should be immediately pulled out of circulation. Lexus is not being appropriately responsive.

My sunroof exploded while i was driving down a residential street. I was driving at a speed of 30mph. I was the only car on the street when i heard a loud pop; it sounded like a shotgun. Afterwards, i heard a cackling sound coming from the top of my car. As a made a complete stop at a red light, i moved my visor to my sunroof back and all i saw was shattered glass. I immediately closed the visor to my sunroof. It was the most frightening experience of my life.my sunroof exploded and now it's shattered to pieces. I made it home, but i cannot drive my car.

As i was driving in the early morning, i opened the moonroof. 5 minutes later i decided to close it because it got cold fast in the car. Upon closing, the moonroof glass self exploded as i was driving 40-45mph. The glass was everywhere. I had to immediately pull over and asses why and what had happened. Nothing hit it, nothing fell on it, all i did was open and close it and it exploded. After further research online, i realized i wasn't the only one that this has happened to. I decided to submit my complaint as this is a very scary and dangerous issue.
