1) engine oil leak at 15,000 miles only on May 8, 2013 (after merely "2 years old") 2) ANOTHER 3 LEAKS IN YEAR 2015 ALONE a) engine oil leak again on March 27, 2015 ( 33,802 miles only ) b) LESS THAN 2 MONTHS, engine oil leak again on May 7, 2015 ( 35,284 miles only ) c) Repeat the 4th time engine oil leak again on Dec. 26,2015 (44,013 miles only ) * per all 4 repair service invoices/records provided by Longo Lexus Dealership, California, this is MAJOR ENGINE OIL LEAKS PROBLEM!!!!

Had chosen Lexus (also own toyota, bmw, benz autos) at that time owing to its fame of reliability, durability and sleek style. However, it had become a NIGHTMARE to me....... In addition to the time, inconvenience caused, I basically STUCK WITH IT!!! I CANNOT SELL IT BECAUSE OF OIL LEAK NUISANCE (NO ONE WILL BUY THIS CAR ONCE DISCLOSE OF SUBJECT ISSUE!!!!!).

Additionally, it caused UNSECURE, NON-RELIABLE and MENTAL BURDEN every time driving this car, as I simply tensed and afraid of when this will happen again!!! Not to mention I no longer able to drive this SUV car long distance anymore (initial purpose of buying SUV for comfortable long trip) albeit carrying 44,000 miles only!!!!!!

I am extremely, extremely........ disappointed, dissatisfied of this ownership, what will be your recommendation of my current awkward situation?!
