2007 Lexus Ls

THE ABS ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY HAS BEEN DEEMED FAULTY IN SEVERAL TOYOTA/LEXUS VEHICLES. INSTEAD OF THE A RECALL BEING ISSUED A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT WAS PUT IN PLACE TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE FOR ANYONE WHO TOOK THE CAR TO THE SHOP. HOWEVER WITH OUT A RECALL MOST PEOPLE WHO WERE OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES WAS NOT AWARE TO HAVE THE PART CHECKED AND THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, A VERY EXPENSIVE PART THAT SHOULD NOT NORMALLY FAIL AND WITH OUT A RECALL OR A LETTER FROM LEXUS/TOYOTA A LOT OF PEOPLE WAS PUT AT A DISADVANTAGE WITH BEING ABLE TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE BEFORE THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT EXPIRED. WHILE IN MOTION I RECEIVED ALL KIND OF ERROR LIGHTS AND A MESSAGE TO PULL MY VEHICLE OVER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND NOTIFY THE DEALER. AT THIS TIME MY ABS SYSTEM IS COMPROMISED AND I HAVE NO TRACTION CONTROL AND MY ABS ACTUATOR CONTINUES TO VIBRATE EVEN WHEN I TURN THE CAR OFF WHICH IS USING THE BATTERY EVEN MORE. IT PULSATES THE ENTIRE TIME THE CAR IS RUNNING ALSO. I FEEL WITH LEXUS KNOW THIS IS A FAULTY PART IT ON SEVERAL OF THEIR VEHICLES CUSTOMERS THAT WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE OR THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT SHOULD NOT BE HELD LABILE WITH THE REPAIR COST WHICH IS 1800 FOR THE PART AND 300-400 FOR LABOR. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL OR THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT SHOULD BE EXTENDED AND ALL OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES SHOULD BE NOTIFIED AND LEXUS/TOYOTA SHOULD COMPENSATE WITH A REPLACEMENT PART ALL THE OWNERS OF VEHICLES WHICH WAS EFFECTED. THIS TOOK PLACE WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON THE INTERSTATE. MY BRAKES ARE VERY HARD TO USE.

MY 2007 LS460 LEXUS WITH 100K MILES HAS A FAILED BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY ASCERTAINED BY A LEXUS AND TOYOTA DEALER. THIS WAS A CONFRONTED PROBLEM BY TOYOTA FOR FAILURE OF THE O RINGS WITHIN THE ASSEMBLY. THE ACTUATOR ABRUPTLY WENT OUT WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70MPH CAUSING BRAKE FLUID TO NOT GO TO THE RIGHT CALIPERS. THERE IS A RECALL FOR 150 K MI OR 10 YEARS, WHICHEVER OCCURS FIRST. HOWEVER. MY LEXUS WAS OUT OF WARRANTY IN MAY, 2018 AND THEY WILL NOT OFFER ANY HELP WHATSOEVER BECAUSE MY WARRANTY EXPIRED APROX. 1 YEAR AGO.

BRAKE MALFUNCTION ERROR WAS SHOWN ON THE SPEEDOMETER SCREEN WITH FIVE LIGHTS (ABS, VSC, BRAKE, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT, AND WARNING LIGHT). THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY SOFT AND THE VEHICLE CAME TO ABRUPT STOPS. ON OTHER OCCASIONS THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME HARD AS A ROCK AND ALSO MADE THE VEHICLE COME TO A JERKING STOP. PULSATION AND NOISE WERE ALSO NOTED. DEALER ADVISED THAT THE BRAKE ACTUATOR PART (44050-50110) WAS THE CAUSE OF THE MALFUNCTION AND NOISE. LEXUS TECH AND ADVISOR NOTED THAT THIS IS A A VERY COMMON ISSUE ON THIS PARTICULAR MODEL - 2007 LS460.
