Takata recall.the contact owns a 2013 lexus is 250c. The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 18v024000 (air bags); however, the parts to do the repair were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The contact called a local dealer (lexus of riverside, 3150 adams st, riverside, ca 92504) and was informed that the remedy was on backorder for approximately two weeks. The manufacturer was not notified of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.
The contact's mother owns a 2013 lexus is 250. While the driver was attempting to park the vehicle, the gear shift lever was placed in park with the brake pedal depressed. Suddenly, the vehicle accelerated independently, drove over a curb, struck a tree, and struck a parked vehicle. The air bags failed to deploy. A police report was filed. The driver was injured and sought medical attention at the emergency room. The vehicle was towed to a collision center. The vehicle was not diagnosed and the repair was still pending. An unknown dealer was contacted and informed of the failure. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 50,000. The vin was not available.
The engine could stall in the middle of driving because of misfire. My lexus 250 only 40k mileage and always do proper maintenance to the engine every 3000 mile. I do research that lexus is 250 cause carbon build up because of the wrong design of the direct injection. Here's the youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytquqflawr8. I brought the car to lexus dealer, they won't admitted, instead they blame me using a wrong fuel. Before i used 91octane shell, then i switch to 91octane chevron. Still has the problem.they should recall for this matter, because it's about safety and the engine could suddenly stall in the middle of driving.
When steering wheel is turned to the rightwhiledriving. A metal scraping noise occurs. This has been fixed several times but keepsoccuringmore often. This only happens when car is in motion. And i believe ithas something to do with the placement of thebrake shield. As if something is pressing on it.
The problem that many is250 lexus owners are having with the front tires wearing out or tearing from the inside. I have found that the issue is the suspension where the front tire and a cotter pin meet every time you hit a bump or pot hole. This has caused great damage to both front tires to the extent where you can see the steel belt. Lexus has gone as far as to blame the tire manufacture and has not taken responsibility for the problem. I ask that this issue be investigated before a life is lost due to negligence.
