SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE UNDERGOING NORMAL PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE BY THE SELLING AUTHORIZED LEXUS DEALER, THE CAR WAS NOTED TO HAVE "... BOTH REAR CALIPER SLIDES ... SEIZED" RESULTING IN THE NEED TO "... REPLACE(D) REAR PADS AND ROTORS DUE TO CALIPERS BEING SEIZED." THE SERVICING DEALER INFORMED ME THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN ALL LEXUS MODELS THAT THEY SERVICE AND, IN THEIR OPINION DUE TO INADEQUATE LUBRICATION OF THE REAR CALIPER SLIDES, WHICH THEY ARE GENERALLY ABLE TO CORRECT BY REMOVING AND RELUBRICATING THE SLIDES OR, IF NECESSARY, BY REPLACING THE CALIPERS. *TR
