The contact owns a 2016 Lexus Nx. The contact stated that while driving at unknown speeds, the vehicle overheated and started to shudder and hesitated. The temperature gauge displayed higher engine temperatures. The vehicle was taken to sterling mccall Lexus clear lake located at (18160 gulf freeway, houston, tx 77546, 281-8523-1400) who diagnosed that the water pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 100,000.

Reported sudden drop in fuel mileage at 1+yr, dealer said no problem detected, shortly after (10K? miles) normal maintenance plug replacement engine warning came on, engine ran rough, #1plug was "burned up", 7 months later engine went to safe mode at 65mph, no power, drive train disabled, no shift... dealer claimed #2 injector failed, recommended replacing all of them. Seems to be a systemic problem if they recommended replacing all of them. Lexus woodland hills.
