This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The engine constantly rattled/shudders violently upon initial start for about 20-30 seconds, and check engine light is on. Driving, acceleration, and fuel economy has decreased/worsened. A mechanic in santa monica stated that the obd readings show random engine's cylinders misfires; and a three-day physical observation after the intake manifold removal shows: Unexplained coolant oil contamination issues, oil mixed with coolant at expansion tank, raw fuel on cylinders, fuel blow by, and repeated spark plugs burning after each replacement. And due to the high cost of forecasted repairs and parts replacement, the technicians recommended replacing the whole engine unit. We're extremely disappointed, Lexus!
Starting cold. Foot on brake. Push start button. Dash stuff lights up but car does not start. Take foot off brake and depress gas pedal. Car starts. It will stall if left to run with foot off gas pedal.easy to restart by depressing gas pedal and no foot on brake. Does this consistently. Took car to dealer and they changed the oil because they could not duplicate the problem.
