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.
My 2001 Lexus GS300 experienced engine bucking and engine cut out due to defective parts--throttle adjuster and pedal sensor. These defective parts were replaced by the Lexus co at 70K miles under the engine warranty. This engine cut out is a potentially dangerous situation to peoples lives.
The problem I have is not manufacturer per SE. A rat or other rodent type animal entered the engine compartment and ate and/or chewed through hoses, harnesses, and plastic component covers causing fluids to leak out and the engine to overheat. My concern is that there may be many similar incidents due to something that is in the components. My BMW was parked in the same place for 2 years and did not have any troubles. I would appreciate any information you can share on this issue. Thanks, jim bouziane.
