Sun roof exploded while driving. Safety is at risk as shards of glass come crashing down while driving. The only warning was a loud noise like a gun shot

My daughter was driving on the Freeway and the vehicle just went dead. She lost all power nothing would work. She was on a outside land and was able to get it off the road. She said it was really hard to do that and scared her very much. She said if she had been in the middle lane she would have not been able to get it off the road. We took it to our mechanic and he told us to take it to a dealer as they had the proper equipment to test the hybrid system. We dont have a lexus dealer in our town but we have a Toyota. We took it there and they told us it would be $170 to find the problem. They called us and had a list of things they recommended. My husband asked did you check the hybird system and they said yes they could find no problems. I called and talked to the gentelman and he said the tests they ran they could not find the problem. I asked him what we could do and he said they cant find the problem. I looked on the internet and many many people have the same problem. How could they not know what the problem was. This makes no sense to me. If your drining down the freeway and lose power this is a safety problem. Lots and Lots of the remarks were to report them to NHSTA so thats what I am doing. Thank You

I purchased a vehicle from a dealership in Illinois. Driving the vehicle home to milwaukee, Wisconsin the hybrid system, traction control system, and all wheel drive system error lights went off at once. The vehicle went into limp mode in the middle of the lane. I struggled to merge over onto the emergency lane. I informed the dealership of the issue, and towed the vehicle to a local Toyota dealership. The local dealership informed us that no codes were showing up, and to pick up the vehicle. We picked the vehicle up, and on the way home the same warning systems showed again. I informed the dealership I wanted a refund, and now they're playing games. When getting home, and checking the VIN to maybe see if there was any safety recalls on the vehicle. It's showing as a salvaged vehicle.

Dashboard is cracking and exposing foam underneath. Concern that pieces will continue to fall off and taping or covering the dashboard may interfere with airbag deployment.

My cracked dashboard or a melted dashboard with glazed stickiness and shiny.I have a hard time seeing the road through the reflection on the windshield.

- San Diego, CA, USA

The dashboard is breaking down (melting) causing it to be extremely shiny and sticky. As well as omitting a gas which has caused a severe glare on the inside of the windshield. This has made it extremely difficult and unsafe to drive at night. Lexus had my vehicle in September of 2016 to fix an oil hose recall and purposely did not make me aware of the faulty dashboard issue, ( said they didn't have to) therefore, I missed the window to have this repaired at their expense. Lexus refuses to make this issue a recall which has affected thousands of vehicles.

Vvt-I rubber oil line ruptured leaking all 6 quarts of oil out of engine, causing catastrophic engine damage while driving in 2008 Lexus RX350 Toyota should have never put a rubber hose on an oil line with 80psi and they should have issued a recall. The Lexus dealer has never advised me of potential problem. They should have to repair my engine. Furious at Toyota for cutting costs!

Airbag/seatbelt passenger light warning is on and not functional. Tire light warning is also on and could not be reset.

My oil line burst on my Lexus Rx 350 SUV and caused severe engine damage as a result. This is a very large leak which covers the ground, engine, and undercarriage. If the oil line ruptures while driving, the low engine oil message and engine oil pressure warnings will illuminate (which it did not, no warning, no illumination of lights) and will result in complete engine failure due to oil starvation.there was no warning lights ahead of time and then all the warning lights went off at the same time when I came out of the store to start the car, and it was towed immediately to a service center and was not driven when the panel lite up (the whole panel illuminated with warnings in every category with no warning to include tire pressure, oil light, engine light, battery light, air bag, SRS, master light, brake light, power steering light, electric charging system light). The car has no damage to the undercarriage indicating this could not be the cause. The mechanic reports a defect in the oil line/pump, it cracked and should not have. They are reporting a very large leak that would have occurred thus damaging the entire engine very quickly. With a rupture of this magnitude no oil to the engine, the engine will be irreparably damaged, you cannot just replace. You cannot repair such a massive oil leak without warning because the damage can be done immediately with such a severe loss so suddenly. I never received a recall notice regarding this issue. The only way to fix it is to replace the engine. This is a catastrophe on a car that is in perfect condition, well maintained for all services with only 77,000 miles on it. Vehicle was stationary

Seat belt in the back passenger side not working. Cracked dash board.

- Garden Grove, CA, USA

The dashboard on my 2008 Lexus 350 is cracking and gets sticky when parked outside. The lift tab for the back power door is tacky like tar when you touch it. The car only has 37,476 miles on it. This should not happen to a car especially a Lexus. I took it to tustin Lexus on Saturday 4/7/18 and they said it was out of warranty and could not replace the dashboard. The letter I received from Lexus advised me of the enhancement coverage even to cover cars out warranty. I believe Lexus should replace the dashboard. We were looking to replace our 2nd Lexus GX460 with a new one but we decided we will not buy another Lexus if they cannot warranty the defects in their cars.

My car has been making noise while driving. The power steering fluid is leaking and keeps dropping low. Complaints have been made to Lexus dealer at massepuqua, NY and lately farmingdale, NY now over past many years.on every visit.

Sudden unintended acceleration issue. I was pulling into a parking space at 8 mph when suddenly my vehicle revved up on its own, jumped the curb, and crashed into a building. Luckily, I was not hurt or hurt someone else. The edr download clearly showed my rpms jumped from 400 to 2,000 in nanoseconds and that the accelerator was "off." Toyota's response to me was "we found no evidence that this incident was the result of any type of defect with the accelerator or brakes." I agree it is not. It is not a brake pedal or accelerator issue. It is a software issue that controls the fuel to the vehicle. After Toyota was fined $1.2 billion (largest ever fine to an auto maker), they updated the software so there is a brake override in case this happens. The local Lexus dealership never mentioned this to me nor have I ever received any type of recall notice. This could have been avoided if the software in my vehicle had been updated. Toyota is "very sorry about this unfortunate incident." Pretty sad words for all of the people that have been killed in accidents because of this issue.

Dashboard has developed numerous cracks, headlight covers are fogged up.

Possible fire hazard on many of these vehicles. The rear tailgate handle has melted on many of these and should not expire under warranty. A Lexus forum has numerous comments about this issue. Apparently some dealerships would charge upwards of $350+ to replace a defective and perhaps hazardous part. I understand the Toyota sienna has similar issues with liftgate. Do not not when melting of handle began.

- Indianapolis, IN, USA

The rubber cover of the liftgate sensor melted. I am concerned about it catching fire and the door does not open when this is touched as it is supposed to. I have read multiple complaints online from owners with the same issue. The black rubber melts and sticks to fingers and is hard to remove. I have grandchildren who try and open the door at times. It also causes the sensor to malfunction since the rubber piece interferes with the sensor. This very common defect should elicit a recall.

- Van Nuys, CA, USA

I received notification from Lexus in 2014 regarding replacement of RX350 dashboard due to a cosmetic manufacturer defect in which the dashboard becomes cracked and melted/sticky. It has been over 2 years and the dashboard has still not been replaced despite many attempts to contact Lexus, I am told the parts are not in yet and that I am supposedly on the list and they will notify me as soon as the parts become available. My concern is over time the dashboard has become worse, it has become extremely cracked. This is a safety issue and I am concerned that it may affect airbag deployment in the case of an accident.
