My 2016 Lexus with 62k miles on it is experiencing an oil leak due to the main rear seal (according to the Lexus technician who diagnosed my car for $99.00). It is out of warranty by 3 months. The repair cost is estimated at $3200.
Since it is out of warranty Lexus does NOT want to cover the cost. I am frustrated as I have never experienced an oil leak for a car with so low mileage before.
After some research I found out this is a common problem with the 350 models. Lexus has even upgraded the seal to a better one, however they would not take responsibility for the repair.
This was my first Lexus; likely it's going to be my last one if I have to pay out of pocket for the repair.
