Owner complaints filed with NHTSA

Model year	COMPONENT	Complaint
2007	EXTERIOR LIGHTING	8.ABOUT 90 MINUTES AFTER PARKING THE CAR, DAVE WENT TO START LEXUS IS250 TO GO TO A RESTAURANT TO MEET FAMILY. THE CAR WOULD NOT START. SO HE TOOK A CAB. THE NEXT MORNING (SATURDAY JULY 31, 2010) HE JUMP STARTED THE LEXUS IS250 AND DROVE IT TO , A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP WHICH WAS THE NEAREST REPAIR FACILITY LISTED IN THE LEXUS IS250ВїїS NAVIGATION SYSTEM AS A REPAIR FACILITY SYSTEM. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT IT COULD NOT BE ABLE BE REIMBURSED FOR WARRANTEE SERVICE BUT TESTED AND ADVISED THAT THE BATTERY WAS BAD. DAVE BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY FROM THEM. THE NEAREST LEXUS DEALER WAS IN SYRACUSE, 90 MILES AWAY AND WAS CLOSED. 9.THE LEXUS IS250 THEN STARTED FINE. DAVE DROVE TO THE BIRTHDAY LUNCH AFTER WHICH THE LEXUS IS250 AGAIN COULD NOT BE STARTED WITHOUT BEING JUMPED STARTED. DAVE THEN RETURNED TO THE MOTEL TO CHANGE INTO HIKING CLOTHS. THE LEXUS IS250 AGAIN WOULD NOT START. DAVE CUT HIS STAY SHORT AND LOADED THE LEXUS IS250 UP BECAUSE HE DID NOT WANT TO BE STUCK IN SUMMER SUNDAY TRAFFIC WITH ROAD CONSTRUCTION DELAYS WHILE THE LEXUS IS250 WAS ERRATIC. DAVES PLAN HAD ORIGINALLY BEEN TO DRIVE FROM ITHACA TO OCEAN CITY, MARYLAND TO SPEND TIME WITH HIS CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN. DAVE DECIDED IT WOULD BE BETTER TO GO DIRECTLY HOME AND TAKE HIS ALWAYS RELIABLE SUBARU TO THE OCEAN. 10.IT WAS A DARK SATURDAY NIGHT WHEN DAVE HAD CROSSED THE NEW YORK ї PENNSYLVANIA STATE LINE AND WAS GOING THROUGH A MOUNTAIN PASS WHEN THE LEXUS IS250 BECAME VERY SCARY. ALL OF THE LIGHTS AND ALL APPARENT ELECTRIC POWER WENT OUT MOMENTARILY AND CAME BACK ON. THIS REPEATED ITSELF MORE THAN 3 DOZEN TIMES WHILE HE DROVE STRAIGHT THROUGH TO HIS HOME. ANOTHER ODD PROBLEM WAS THAT WHEN HE USED THE SWITCHES UP CLOSE THE WINDOWS, 3 OF THE 4 WOULD CLOSE THEN COME BACK DOWN BETWEEN 1 AND 2. *TR
2006	VISIBILITY/WIPER	THE DASHBOARD ON THE LEXUS IS 250 IS MELTING AND DISINTEGRATING LEAVING A SHINY RESIDUE THAT REFLECTS ON THE WINDSHIELD WHILE DRIVING IN THE SUN. THIS SHINY RESIDUE CAUSED BY THE MELTING OF THE DASHBOARD IMPAIRS VISIBILITY THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD MAKING IT DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING IN SUNLIGHT. I COULDN'T SEE DEBRIS THAT WAS ON THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING AND HIT THE DEBRIS ON THE ROAD, THIS CAUSED ME TO SWERVE AROUND AND ALMOST HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THIS BECAUSE THIS SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING ON A VEHICLE THAT IS ONLY A FEW YEARS OLD. THIS SHINE REFLECTION ON THE WINDSHIELD IS UNPREDICTABLE AS THE LOW VISIBILITY ONLY OCCURS WHEN THE SUN REFLECTS ON THE DASHBOARD. I CAN'T PREDICT WHICH DIRECTION I WILL BE DRIVING, FACING THE SUN OR NOT, MAKING IT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT ALL TIMES. *TR
