2022 Lexus ES Tires & Wheels Problems

All 4 tires showed the belts/cords in several places. Tire size: 235/45R18 . We took our car to our Lexus dealer for the 30,000 mile inspection and service. This car had the original manufacturer installed tires, with the tread wear showed that all 4 tires had more mileage remaining. The Lexus mechanic took photos of all is work, which included photos of the belts/cords actually visible in multiple spots on all 4 tires. We took one of these tires to show the Firestone dealer, but could not take all four. The Lexus dealer said it was not safe to drive this car on I95 at high speeds because a blow-out was quite possible, and our lives (and possible others)were in danger. So we bought and had installed four new tires in order to drive about 40 miles to our home. There were no warning messages about this (or any) problem. This problem can be confirmed by our dealer, Lexus of Warwick, Rhode Island. We called Bridgestone when we got safely home and were told that we had to drive the car to show the tire problem to a Firestone Service Center, but this was impossible since driving the car with unsafe tires was not reasonable. We have one bad tire we can show anyone, and the Lexus Service people can confirm that the same visible belt issue was bad on all four tires.

I had my vehicle serviced at Westside Lexus on March 20, 2024. My vehicle, a 2022 Lexus 300h F Sport, was brought in for 20,000-mile service, and not only has the issue not been resolved, but it has also led to a dangerous situation that could have resulted in serious and potentially fatal harm. To elaborate, after the service, I noticed that the car did not drive as smoothly nor sound as quiet as normal for my hybrid vehicle. I also heard noise as I entered/exited the driveway, drove over speed bumps, backed up, and exited the vehicle. This noise was similar to my experience after a prior service appointment when I noticed on the highway that my rear passenger tire was wobbly, posing a significant risk to my family’s safety and that of others on the road. As with my previous experience, I heard more noise and what sounded like loose parts after a few weeks. When I checked, my rear passenger tire was loose again. As a 15-year Toyota owner, I trusted Lexus for its reputation for safety, dependability, quality, and customer care, but this experience has shaken my confidence in your brand. For each service appointment, I consent to the recommended services. It is unacceptable for a Lexus service center to return a vehicle in a condition that is unsafe to drive. Here are the details of my service visit: · Service Date: March 20, 2024 · Work Order Number: 687595 · Vehicle Mileage: 20,105 · Description of Service Performed: 20,000-mile service and four-wheel alignment Upon discovering the issue and having Lexus Roadside Assistance tow the vehicle back to the dealership.

The contact owns a 2022 Lexus ES350. The contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds, the TPMS warning light illuminated. The contact stated that when the vehicle was taken to add air to the tire with the required 35 PSI, the TPMS warning light was turned off independently. The contact stated that the TPMS warning light illuminated again and when the required 35 PSI was in the tires the warning light illuminated, stating that the tire pressure was low. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the failure with the sensors or tires was not determined. The failure recurred several times. The vehicle was taken to the same dealer several times, where the cause of the failure was not determined; however, the dealer replaced the tire pressure sensors to indicate the tire was low at 29 PSI instead of the required 35 PSI. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 13,615.
