Service brakes, March 13, 2011 - mansfield MA I purchased my 2010 Lexus Rx 450H in December 2010. Ever since I bought it, I have noticed that from time to time, when I press the brake pedal, the car seems to surge forward(!) momentarily before it slows down. This happens most frequently. It will happen even if I am only coasting and not touching the gas pedal when pressing the brake initially. It happens to me at least once or twice a week. It is somewhat disturbing. I have mentioned this to my Lexus dealer, but they have dismissed my concerns both times I brought it up. Has anyone else noticed this issue? view details

The contact owns a 2010 Lexus rx450H. While driving approximately 55 mph, the vehicle began to unintentionally decelerate. During the failure the check engine, all wheel drive and hybrid system lights were illuminating. The vehicle was then towed to an authorized dealer where they were in the process of diagnosing the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 18,000.

The engine makes a noise like a sloppy piston or a rod knocking. The car is a 2010 Lexus RX350 with 69,000 miles. What is interesting here ia the fact that the issue was discussed with the service group on a recent confrence call but the staff was told to keep it quiet. Is Toyota playing the games again?

I have a new 2010 Lexus rx 350 keep stalling while I was waiting for traffic light, problem stated soon after I started driving, while mileage was around 1500, when the car stalled ABS (anti brake system) sign showed up. I took the cars several times back to Lexus, they used their computer to check computer records of my cars and claimed nothing wrong with the car, until the third time I went back, the brake malfunction warning sign showed up while Lexus's technician was inside the car with me, then they kept the car 10 days and repaired the problem, but still claimed nothing else is wrong with the car, cannot explain why the car stalled, they claimed computer of my car didn't record any stalled history therefore no proof car stalling problem. I told them the computer of my car is so defect that they didn't find brake malfunction problem until the sign showed up in dashboard, why are they still rely on the computer" they kept the car for 10 days to repair a brake, how come it takes 10 days" I believe they found out that the car has more than brake problems, and they know all the Lexus car has potential pending problem, either electronically or computer that control the electronic, imagine if my car stalled while I was driving on the high way, for the safety of all the cars on the street, your division should look into the problem of not only Toyota but also Lexus and other cars made by Toyota motor Inc.
