My wife was coming from work in the early morning on April 1, 2019 at highway speed around 70 to 75mph. All of a sudden she could hear big noise coming out of engine, warning lights started coming on the dash and she could mange to stop the car in the emergence lane. She could smell the oil burning from the front. The vehicle was towed to the auto shop and was evaluated next week. They told me that engine have big holes in the front, rear and at the bottom. Transfer case also got a big hole along with the battery. The vehicle has had a regular oil change and routing inspection in all the previous years. I have shown this to couple of repair shops and they told me that they have never seen this kind of instance in any vehicle and especially Lexus.

Oil hose leak. Oil pipe which connects to the engine. While driving the hose will leak and you will never be advised that the oil is low. "a service bulletin" went out to replace the plastic hose to metal. When you take the car to the dealership they try to tell you its not a safety issue but an engine not receiving oil and your truck just breaking down is a safety issue.

My car started leaking oil all over my driveway and into the garage, as soon as I realized what happened I drove it to the dealer. Dealer said front oil cooler hoses were leaking and that I was not the first. Dealer asked Lexus to recall and were refused. This defect is all over the internet since the company used rubber hose instead of metal which they used to use and should have continued to use. The part was covered under warranty but my driveway and garage floor are ruined. The company 1-800 number service person was rude. I was never notified this part was a problem. Other drivers are being stranded on roadways and their engines are blowing up. Please help. This needs a class action suit or a forced recall.

While slowly pulling into parking space in the parking lot of the local post office, with foot on brake pedal car quickly accelerated forward with engine reaving. Car shot forward going over concrete car stops toward a creek and smashed into a stand of trees. Driver airbags deployed. Complete front of vehicle including hood and windshield were smashed and driven into engine compartment. I believe this is a case of unintended acceleration caused by the vehicle malfunctioning. There have been multiple documented complaints of this happening in Lexus rx 350 vehicles. The floor mat was securely in place and had not moved and the driver insists her foot was on the brake petal at all times. There were no obstructions in or around the accelerator petal or the brake. Paramedics were called to scene and a police report was filed.

The "engine maintenance required" light will not reset anymore after an oil change...even after you follow the steps in the users manual. It used to work because I've done it before. Now, no matter what I do, it won't reset.
