My GX470 2004 has rust on frame, shocks and suspension. Have been told that they will not make any repairs because they will cost more than vehicle. Lexus should really consider these frames from dana Ohio in the recalls as the others. Over the years I have had the radiator, emergency brake and rims all rust out and replaced as well and the vehicle is not even in snow or beach areas. These vehicles also have the seat belt issue which makes the airbag light stay on. As nice and reliable these vehicles were I believe Lexus should back their product!

At start up the rear height goes up and stays up. Took it to the shop and they manually bled the air. Said sensor go out all the time and cost a lot to replace. Currently staying level but rides a little tight. Definitely don't want to pay $3000 for a fix.
