2010 Lexus RX350

HAD TO REPLACE THE BRAKE FLUID IN THE VEHICLE AT 30000 MILES. LEXUS REQUIRES THIS SUPPOSEDLY TO MAINTAIN THE INTEGRITY OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM AND PROVIDE A SAFE VEHICLE. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY DEFECT IN THE DESIGN. ANY VEHICLE' SHOULDBE ROBUST ENOUGH TO LAST MUCH LONGER THAN THIS WITHOUT THIS LEVEL OF SERVICE BEING REQUIRED BY THE MANUFACTURER. IF THE VEHICLE DOES REALLY NEED THIS, THAN LEXUS SHOULD COVER IT UNDER WARRANTY. BRAKES ALSO REQUIRED DISASSEMBLY AND CLEANING AT 15000 MILES AT CUSTOMERS EXPENSE. *TR

I WENT OUT TO GRAB A BITE TO EAT FOR MY DAUGHTER AND I CAME TO A STOP LIGHT AT A MAJOR INTERSECTION. I RECEIVED THE TURN ARROW SO I ACCELERATED THRU THE TURN AND THEN PUNCHED THE GAS TO MAKE IT THRU THE NEXT LIGHT THAT WILL TURN RED IF YOU DON'T GIVE IT A LITTLE GAS TO GET THRU IT. I MAKE IT THRU THE LIGHT AND GET IN THE RIGHT LANE TO SLOW DOWN TO MAKE MY TURN AND MY BRAKES DON'T WORK AND MY CAR STARTS ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN. I HAVE NO CONTROL OF THE SPEED SO I THROW THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND KEEP SLAMMING THE BRAKES WHILE THE BRAKE MALFUNCTION LIGHT APPEARS. I'M NOT SURE HOW MY CAR SLOWS DOWN AND I MAKE A RIGHT TURN INTO A PARKING LOT AND MY ENGINE IS STILL SOUNDING LIKE IT IS ACCELERATING AND I AM IN NEUTRAL. MY CAR ROLLED TO A STOP, I SHUT IT DOWN AND CALLED THE LEXUS LINE. THE HAD A TOWING COMPANY OUT WITHIN AN HOUR AND THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER TOLD ME THIS IS AT LEAST THE 10TH TIME HE HAS HAULED THIS TYPE OF CAR FOR THE SAME THING. *TR

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. *TR
