On two occasions my gs460 lexus in stationary mode would not start. On 1st occasion towed to flow lexus which was charged for approximately $65.00. The 2nd time four months later i was pumping gas at sam's and the car battery went dead. A customer gave me a boost. I called flow lexus they said to have it towed and to replace battery for $200.00. I purchased my battery at sam's. Vehicle making rear end sound since i have purchased car. Will take back to flow lexus.
My cars stereo sound system has allot of static done some research and have come to a conclusion that its a fault from manufacturers as many customers have the same issues with their mark levinson speakers where the foam around the speakers falling apart. Another issue is with the vsc issue where it comes on dash error and shut the traction control off making automobile to peel off and lose traction. Last issue which is common is the head light sprinkler always turning on when starting automobile wasting washer fluid.
October 2015 had brakes replace do to bad front pads/rotors at flow lexus. Drove around for several weeks to break in brakes. Everytime i depressed brakes 90% of time heard metal to metal loud scrapping noise on the right side and i was in motion. January 4,2016 took auto back to flow lexus. Brakes retested, lubricant and flow lexus stated could not detected the noise.yet on my way home in motion i detected the brake noise again on the right side. The brake sound is heard when i slow up to stop as well as when i slow up to turn. The sound is so loud other people turn their head to look to see what's wrong.
I have a 2008 lexus gs460 which was having issues with not starting, on two occasions it needed to be jump started, on the second occasion after being jumped, i was advised to drive to the lexus dealer to have it checked out again.as before, there were many "dummy" lights lit up on the dash board, one of which was the traction control light which i attributed to the battery being dead.as i was driving to the dealership, i accelerated slightly (about 30 mph) to pass a vehicle that had stopped to make a left hand turn and my lexus started to fish tail across two lanes of traffic, thankfully i did not hit anyone but i did crash my car into a snow bank, causing damage to the car and a minor case of whiplash.the dealership told me that the traction control was not functioning due to the fact that the battery had died but even after being jump started still did not have enough power to run the traction control.they also told me the reason the battery kept dying was due to a lumbar support button that was draining the battery.so my issue with this is that i could have very well been seriously hurt or hurt someone else because unbeknownst to me my traction control was not working in december in wisconsin on roads with icy patches.this seems like a design flaw to me, i don't see any reason why a vehicle would be/should be driven with out the traction control working if the vehicle is equipped with it.
