I was driving around 40 mph and was hit in the side by a driver who ran a stop sign at a screeching halt and hit my passenger side front and rear. I flipped 2.5 times and landed upside down. I was able to exit the vehicle through the rear windows my child. The car kept me safe as far as airbags and seatbelt. We had some injuries but no broken bones. After researching, I find the gx is known to have a stability issue and flip from even small impacts from the side. This accident could have been way worse as my car was totaled and all airbags deployed except for front steering and dash.they need to fix this issue. As far as holding up in the rollover, the cabin area was intact mostly. But the car should not have rolled over and if I was on the interstate or had other cars coming at me, it may have been worse. The stability issue needs to be fixed.

Turning left into neighborhood and struck rear passenger side panel behind the tire (bumper area). I was going approx 10-15 mph, other vehicle (Camry) was going 40 mph. Car rolled twice. I believe this is due to a known issue with this model leaning to the right, which causes an increased rollover risk on left hand turns. It seems that Lexus is aware, but has not addressed the issue. Happy to provide photos or additional documentation if needed.
