2010 Lexus ES Complaint Log

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 LEXUS ES350. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V340000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. UPDATED 07/11/17*LJ *CN

I WAS BACKING CAR OUT OF DRIVEWAY WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN CAR ACCELERATED HITTING CURB, RAN UP AN EMBANKMENT AND CRASHED INTO NEIGHBORS FRONT STEPS. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IT EVER DID THAT. IT APPEARS THAT THROTTLE MUST HAVE STUCK CLOSE TO MAXIMUM ACCELERATION AS CAR CLIMBED UP A 10-12 FOOT EMBANKMENT AND HIT NEIGHBORS BRICK FRONT STEPS WITH SUCH FORCE IT PICKED REAR WHEELS RIGHT OFF THE GROUND.

APPARENTLY, LEXUS MAILED A RECALL NOTICE TO MY HOME ADDRESS SOMETIME IN JUNE (THE LETTER DOES NOT HAVE A DATE THAT IT WAS ISSUED) ABOUT THE TAKATA PASSENGER AIRBAG PROBLEM. HOWEVER, I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THE RECALL NOTICE UNTIL AFTER I MADE A LONG TRIP WITH MY SISTER FROM ATLANTA, GA TO MELBOURNE, FL IN MID JUNE 2016. FORTUNATELY MY SISTER AND I WERE NOT IN AN ACCIDENT DURING THAT TRIP, BUT IF I HAD KNOWN ABOUT THE RECALL BEFOREHAND, I WOULD NOT HAVE USED THE CAR FOR THE TRIP. LEXUS NEEDS TO DO A BETTER JOB OF NOTIFYING THEIR CUSTOMERS OF SERIOUS PROBLEMS THAT COULD RESULT IN MAJOR INJURY OR DEATH. I AM ANGRY THAT MY HUSBAND AND I CANNOT MAKE FULL USE OF THIS CAR AND THAT LEXUS IS NOT FIXING THIS PROBLEM...THEY TOLD US TO WAIT ANOTHER 6 MONTHS. WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO CONTINUE MAKING CAR PAYMENTS ON A VEHICLE THAT IS DEFECTIVE AND DANGEROUS. SHAME ON THE CAR MANUFACTURERS LEXUS (TOYOTA) AND MANY OTHERS WHO KNEW THAT TAKATA AIR BAGS WERE DEFECTIVE AND YET STILL INSTALLED THEM IN THEIR CARS IN THE NAME OF SAVING DOLLARS. DISGUSTING!

TAKATA RECALL. WE WERE NOTIFIED OF THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL AFFECTING OUR 2010 LEXUS ES 350 BUT WERE TOLD THAT THERE IS NO REMEDY AT THIS TIME. WE WERE ALSO TOLD TO NOT HAVE PASSENGERS RIDE IN THE FRONT SEAT. THIS IS AN UNACCEPTABLE RESPONSE AS WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE DRIVERS SAFETY AND THE CAR IS EFFECTIVELY A 3 PASSENGER VEHICLE LIMITING OUR ABILITY TO CARPOOL.

"TAKATA RECALL". I CALLED MY LOCAL LEXUS DEALERSHIP TO SEE IF I COULD GET A RENTAL CAR UNTIL THEY WERE ABLE TO FIX MY CAR. WHAT THEY OFFERED WAS RIDICULOUS. THEY WOULD APPROVE $30.00 A DAY FOR RENTAL CAR WITH A $1,000.00 LIMIT. THE PARTS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL 2017. THAT WOULD MEAN THAT I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR OVER FIVE MONTH FOR A RENTAL CAR. MY HONDA TRUCK IS ON THE SAME RECALL AND THEY OFFERED ME FREE RENTAL WHICH I AM DRIVING. I TRIED TO CALL LEXUS AT 800-255-3987 BUT THEY DROP THE LINE AFTER HOLDING FOR OVER15 MINUTES TWICE. I AM RETIRED AND WE HAVE 3 GRANDCHILDREN SO MY CAR WILL NOT BE SAFE TO DRIVE WHEN THEY VISIT. PLUS, MY WIFE AND I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RIDE TOGETHER UNLESS SHE SITS IN THE BACK SEAT. THE OFFER BY LEXUS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE ESPECIALLY SINCE HONDA HAS OFFERED A MORE REASONABLE OPTION. THANK YOU *TR

"TAKATA RECALL" - LEXUS HAS FAILED TO REMEDY THE DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME. THEY HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THIS FOR MONTHS AND SENT A LETTER IN JULY SAYING "IN THE EVENT OF AN INFLATOR RUPTURE, METAL FRAGMENTS COULD PASS THROUGH THE AIRBAG CUSHION MATERIAL, STRIKING THE VEHICLE OCCUPANTS, AND RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH." THE LOCAL DEALER HAS NO IDEA WHEN THE REPLACEMENT OF THE AIRBAG INFLATOR OR THE AIRBAG ASSEMBLY WILL BE AVAILABLE. UNTIL THE REPLACEMENT IS MADE, THE CAR CANNOT BE DRIVEN WITH SOMEONE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS CREATES A HUGE HARDSHIP AND GREATLY REDUCES THE ABILITY TO USE THE CAR. SINCE LEXUS HAS KNOW ABOUT THIS FOR A LONG TIME, IT IS UNACCEPTABLE TO NOT PROMPTLY REMEDY THE DEFECT OR EVEN GIVE A TIME RANGE WHEN THE REMEDY MIGHT BE COMPLETED.

TAKATA RECALL. IT HAS TAKEN TOO LONG TO RECTIFY THE DEFECT. THE RECALL WAS DATED JUNE 9 2016. TODAY IS NOVEMBER 1 2016. I HAVE LOST THE USE OF THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT FOR ALMOST 5 MONTHS! WILL I BE COMPENSATED BY LEXUS/TAKATA FOR LOSS OF USE? WHEN CAN I EXPECT THE DEFECT TO BE FIXED?

TAKATA RECALL, IN JUNE 2016 I RECEIVED IN THE US MAIL A NOTICE OF RECALL FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG. THE NOTICE ADVISED ME TO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITH A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. IT IS 5 MONTHS LATER AND LEXUS STILL HAS NO SOLUTION OR AVAILABLE REMEDY FOR THIS SITUATION. IN THE MEANTIME THE RESALE PRICE OF THE CAR HAS FALLEN DUE TO THIS SITUATION. I WANT THE AIRBAG REPLACED BY LEXUS SOON.

TAKATA RECALL - UNABLE TO USE PASSENGER SEAT IN MY CAR WHICH IS MY PRIMARY MODE OF TRANSPORTATION AND NEED ALL PASSENGER SEAT. NO WORD OR INDICATION OF WHEN FIX WHEN BE AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL MY LETTER IS DATED. JULY 9TH 2016 I WOULD LIKE TO FIND OUR WHY THIS PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED. I HAVE NOT HAD A PASSENGER FOR OVER A YEAR.

TAKATA RECALL. MY FATHER WAS TOLD ABOUT AN INFLATOR RECALL ON HIS PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LAST YEAR (MAY 2016). HE WAS TOLD TO CONTINUE DRIVING THE CAR BUT IT WAS RECOMMENDED THAT NO ONE RIDE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. MY FATHER IS 90 YEARS OLD AND STILL CARRIES A VALID DRIVER'S LICENSE. MY MOTHER IS 84. PUTTING HER IN THE BACKSEAT OF THE CAR FOR A FEW MONTHS WOULD BE INCONVENIENT BUT DOABLE. PUTTING HER IN THE BACKSEAT FOR OVER A YEAR IS UNACCEPTABLE (NOT TO MENTION SHE REFUSES TO BE CHAUFFEURED AROUND THE CITY BY MY FATHER). I WORK FOR AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO. AND IT IS OUR POLICY TO GET PEOPLE OUT OF THEIR CARS UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THEY CAN BE FIXED. I AM CONCERNED THAT LEXUS DOES NOT HAVE THIS SAME POLICY. IF THAT AIRBAG DEPLOYS DURING A COLLISION, I HAVE NO DOUBT IT WILL KILL MY MOTHER. I THINK IT ONLY APPROPRIATE THAT MY PARENTS BE PROVIDED A RENTAL AT LEXUS' EXPENSE UNTIL THE INFLATOR CAN BE REPLACED (HOPEFULLY SOMETIME IN 2017).
