I WAS DRIVING HOME AT 25MPH (WITHOUT MY CHILD) APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION, WHEN THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME MAKES A LAST MINUTE LANE CHANGE TO TURN AT THE INTERSECTION, I GO TO BREAK AND IT DOESN'T BREAK, THE PEDAL REACTS HARD WHERE IT'S ALWAYS A SOFT COMPRESSION, THE DASH LIGHTS UP FLASHING THE MESSAGE "BREAK MALFUNCTION" "CHECK ABS, CHECK VSC, CHECK BRAKE SYSTEM, NOT TO DRIVE VEHICLE DUE TO SYSTEM FAILURE, CONTACT DEAL IMMEDIATELY". I COAST DOWN THE ROAD AND UPON BREAKING AGAIN THE WHOLE CAR SHAKES MAKING STEERING AND ESPECIALLY TURNING VERY DIFFICULT. I TAKE IT 5MPH THE REST OF THE WAY AND ONCE HOME AND PARKED, I TRY TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. WHEN DEPRESSING THE BRAKE TO ACTIVATE THE ELECTRIC START, THE BREAK KICKED BACK AND THE CAR WOULD NOT START. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER IT WAS PURCHASED FROM. THE DEALER DID CONFIRM IT WAS THE BREAK ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY (L-SB-0178-09) THAT HAD BEEN ISSUED A SPECIAL WARRANTY (POLICY BULLETIN 16-01) WITH A 10 YEAR TERM FROM PURCHASE DATE. UNFORTUNATELY THE ISSUE HAD NOT BEEN TAKEN CARE OF WITH THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND THEN BECAME A PROBLEM 8 MONTHS AFTER I MADE THE PURCHASE... WHICH IS NOW OUT OF THE SPECIAL WARRANTY TERM. I AM CURRENTLY WORKING TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE AND HOPE LEXUS WILL HELP COVER THE $2600 REPAIR. MORE IMPORTANTLY I AM HOPING IT BECOMES A RECALL BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY ISSUE. I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT WOULD OF HAPPENED IF I WAS ON THE FREEWAY.
