The brakes are squeaking really badly. I got them checked out and everything looked good, they said there was some dirt and rust in there so they cleaned that up. They stopped squeaking for a day but now doing it again. I see others here with the similar issue.

The vehicle engine's has abnormal noise at idle and grinding noise due to the failure of vacuum regulator valves, it cost the vehicle losing power at anytime which can result drivers get into an accident. A recall should be issues due to high numbers of failures of the components.

Brought a Lexus Is200T in May 2016 6 months into having the car the ac and audio system completely went dead. Took it to the dealer they stated I had placed a coin in the radio hence the system shutting down I had to pay to replace everything. Then 2 months later the ac went again. Took it in at the one year mark the car needs tyres, brakes, trotle body, injectors and engine filters. However Lexus refus to help in any way and I deed this to be unfair considering this car has such faults I replaced the tyres my self however they are not fixin the issues causing the tyres to go bad or issues mentioned. After one year brand new car I don't feel I should be having this much issue I deed this car to be a lemon. Im completely disgusted by Lexus and would never buy another. The car also shut down in the middle of driving

IS 200t

The contact owns a 2016 Lexus Is200T. While driving at any speed, the contact heard squeaking sounds from the brakes when the brake pedal was depressed. The dealer stated that if the brakes were replaced, it would not resolve the issue due to the material used for the brake pads on the 2016 Lexus F-sport models. The manufacturer was not notified of the issue. The failure mileage was 900.
