Whenever giving the vehicle moderate to high acceleration, a rotten egg smell comes out of the air conditioner vents. The smell is so bad that it makes me dizzy and I feel like vomiting. I've been told by the Lexus dealer that this is a "normal characteristic of the vehicle" because of the sulfur content in fuel. I have owned several different models of Lexus vehicles in the past and never had this problem.
