The pcs (pre collision system) warning icon flashed in the display indicating that the pcs was temporarily unavailable. The vehicle was being driven on a highway. Pulled over to look in the owners manual only to find that the manual told me to stop. We proceeded to return home without experiencing any adverse handling. I really don't feel safe driving the car not knowing if the pcs system will fail.

My 2013 Lexus ES 300H has got a weak brakes, sometimes would make squeaking noise when you hold them and few times wouldn't brake when braking on a bit rough road. I was afraid for my safety and went to Lexus dealer to perform diagnostic. They said that my car needs a brake actuator to be replaced which is very expensive procedure. However, people in a dealership admitted that it's a common problem for these cars and my research on the internet confirmed it as well. Also, Lexus issued extended warranty for an ABS failure but somehow you are qualified only when your ABS fail. That's sounds very dangerous and unsafe. I did more research and found that in 2016 in australia Lexus has recalled 2013 and above Lexus ES models because of brake actuator and ABS module malfunction. I don't understand why are the same models not being recalled in usa for the same very common problem.

I was parking my car on a commercial complex. I am pressing on the brake as the car slows down. When I further pressed on the brake, the car instead of taking a complete stop, accelerated. It hit the building in front of me. When trying to back up, it accelerated again in reverse. I pressed the brake really hard then it stopped.

While attempting to make a 3-point turn, I first backed out of a driveway onto the road, paused to check for traffic, shifted from reverse into drive and pulled forward and.started to turn to my left. As I did I experienced a loss of steering and brakes and the dashboard indicator lights all lit at once. My car drifted across the center line and I was unable to stop it from rolling to the other side of the road where it ended up perpendicular to oncoming traffic and only stopped when it hit an embankment. My car sustained front bumper and grille damage.
