2010 Lexus gx 460 staling after stopping. After pulling on to main road, just barely into traffic, the car will maybe move 5mph for aprox 3-4 sec. I have the accelerator floorboarded and then the car zooms rapidly. This has happened a few times, I called Lexus Corp and they said they didn't know of any other problem similar. I barely avoided 1 wreck the first timethis happened to me. I was hoping it was just a freak occurrence. Of course, after a few occurrences I knew there was a real problem and Lexus was not telling the truth. My phone call was in August 2010. The final situation occurred when I pulled out in a road construction site near my house. I waited for what I thought was a safe time to enter traffic, as it is a very busy highway. After entering the highway, my car stalled and a semi was coming right at me. I had no recourse, but to wait for power. Just in the knick of time- my car went zoom-very fast.. a wreck was averted, but barely. This car is dangerous. I was almost killed. Lexus says, they think they have a fix. Really. I am absolutely terrified after 2 very close calls, one of which would have killed me. I want a real fix. I am reporting this in hopes that you will demand Lexus take this car off the road until it is really fixed. No one should be killed, especially when the problem is well know.

GX 460

Hello, I am an owner for 2010 gx 460 and experienced a problem where the car stalls or does not accelerate when flooring the gas pedal when making turns or rolling stops. The dealership stated this is a known issue and Lexus is working on a fix, however this is dangerous when this happens in the intersection... I am working with Lexus Corp to see what I can do before a fix is found. This issue happens pretty consistently in the situation described.
