3 sets of brakes and 3 other brake repairs in 24,000 miles, beginning within 3 months of ownership.lexus says that this is a "normal operating characteristic of the vehicle" after we asked them to fix them, and went through their lemon law process.brakes either squeal loudly or grab tight and shudder.
I am having issues with my brake actuator and abs system.lexus had a warranty campaign for this issue with the prior generation 07 to 10 lexus ls460 yet this issue persists with 2013 ls460 .they are aware of this problem my car had almost no braking ability and it is unsafe to drive to add insult to injury the so called fix cost $8000. Other lexus ls460 owners have complained about this problem and have expressed their concerns in the lexus forums and blogs these complaints are in the thousands.
