Lexus ES Change Vehicle

"A/C QUIT WORKING. REPAIRED AT ROSEVILLE LEXUS"

"A/C stopped blowing cold & ratcheting sound from dashboard whenever the car is started or turned off. Pep Boys told us the system was empty from a leak & replaced Schrader valves & charged system. 2 weeks later same issue, went back was told same repair necessary. Pep Boys honored warranty and did job 2nd time. 2 weeks later hot again. This time Pep Boys says its under the dashboard and will cost $1700 less the $350 already spent. We will see if its fixed now..."

"A sensor went bad and therefore the system did not function correctly. Also, the water pump failed and had to be replaced."

"Only called on one side"

"The part of the blower that directs heat to the passenger side of the car is not working. The passenger side only gets cold air no matter what the setting is. Fine in the summer but miserable in the winter. It works out if there is only a driver in the car. To get at the part to fix it requires taking out the entire dash. The part itself is an easy fix and not expensive, but the repair costs are really high due to the difficulty accessing it. We have put off fixing it due to the cost. From what we understand, this is a common problem in these cars."

"Fan stopped working correctly. Needed replaced"

"heating system only works on drivers side. For a Lexus, you do not expect this to occur"

"The heating system on the passenger side does not work. It appears that an entire new computer control system needs to be replaced for more than a $1000."

"control of Passenger side heating system stopped working"

"These items failed and my cost was appx. 1800.00 Condenser & Evaporator"

"I HAD TO ADD FREON MANY TIMES"

"Air conditioning not cooling car. Dealer had to recharge freon"

"Quit working"

"Connectivity and USge is difficult - may be a technical problem to be checked out!"

"Not worth the extra money. Impossible to program and use effectively"

"Gives inaccurate directions to some places when input to the gps. System not user friendly, too complicated"

"Navigation stopped working."

"system lost location i.d. recently, no gps; dealership 'reset' it, no charge, currently doubtful of reliability; have owned 4 es350s with nav system since 2006, first time problem with it; 3 were bought new, this one used in december 2016 after collision totaled my 2011 es350"

"GPS map shows me nowhere near my actual position, regardless of how many times I reset it. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Due to age of car and complexity of system I have no desire to make it work correctly by paying to get it fixed as I'm assuming it would be cost prohibitive"

"Pairing capability quit! No capability exists for any phone. Is under an extended warranty. Should be repaired soon"

"By the time the Bluetooth answers my response the caller has often hung up"

"Radio locked up, and this was a known problem others had as found on google search. Dealer replaced this radio under warranty"

"Radio will intermittently quit working"

"Both headlights needed to be replaced by "dealership only" at a cost of $700"

"low beam hid burned out dealer wanted $232.00 found exact same bulb at canadian tire for $118.00"

"The two front "high Beam" bulbs needed replacement as well as two rear brake light bulbs"

"Headlights color change"

"My front headlights went out without warning on a very long trip I was on at night. I had no idea that the lights were not working. My dealer wanted an enormous amount of money to put in new lights ($700)! I bargained him down, but found the price to be exorbitant. Also, thought there should be a warning light on my dash about this"

"The headlights that are required for replacement are very expensive."

"Driver's door "touch to unlock" function failed"

"Approaching vehicle, automatic lights due to key fob stopped lighting as well as automatic unlocking. Must now use manual opening of vehicle (flaws continued despite installing new Lexus battery in keyless entry fob)"

"a check engine light is on and the dealer said the catalytic converter needs to be replaced"

"My car was hit by a rock while driving and it cracked the windshield. The windshield had to be replaced. The company that replaced the windshield messed up the automatic wipers. The sensor no longer attaches to the windshield making it unUSble"

"Automatic washer feature failed"

"When it rains the trunk leaks. Have replacedheseal but still have the same problem."

"Water pump replaced"

"sunroof mechanism was loose"

"right axle seal"

"Door Rattle, now fixed"

"Sunroof made popping noise when open"

"brake noise the dealer can't fix"

"It’s a 11 year old car, so I guess I should expect some squeaks and rattles."

"High speed wind noise near driver's side window"

"Wind noise at highway speed"

"Wind noise I have experienced since I bought the car brand new."

"Fuel filler door spring broke"

"Replaced trunk latch"

"front passenger door came out of track"

"The right passenger window came off the track and would not go up without holding the window. Apparently a piece of the window inside the door broke"

"When opening door windows, they get streaks on the inside due to deteriorating weather stripping where the glass enters the door. Streaks are very difficult to remove; used acetone to dissolve the plastic-like streaks. Problem recurs whenever windows are rolled down or up again."

"The driver's side window got out of the track and had to be replaced"

"Passenger-side front window lowers correctly but doesn't raise into position correctly (it goes outside of the track). Same problem I had with driver's window a few years ago. Not worth the $600 repair I was quoted by dealer."

"water pump failed"

"During routine maintenance the water pump was found to be leaking and needed to be replaced. It was covered under warranty"

"Water pump failed at 60K"

"Water pump failed, replaced the water pump & belts"

"Water pump is leaking antifreeze."

"started leaking coolant"

"Service required engine coolant replacement. Mechanic noticed noisy water pump. Recommended replacement before exchanging fluid. Bearings were shot. Mechanic showed me the old pump."

"warranty covered the repair of this oil leak which would have cost about $4000 had I paid for it"

"oil filter not installed right"

"Rubber hose cracked and all oil leaked out. Car could not be driven until hose was replaced."

"Last year, the car dealer discovered engine oil leak which cost me over $5,000 to fix. This year, the dealer discovered more oil leak at another location which will cost me additional $5,000 more to fix. Therefore, I told the dealer not to do the repair until a more serious oil leak develop. I simply will not know how many engine gaskets I have to replace. The dealer told me they can only replace the gaskets that is leaking. There area a lot of gaskets ! The main cost is to take the engine out, replace the gasket, and put the engine back but I do not feel worth the effort to replace them one at a time."

"I was quoted nearly $6000 to repair a leaking front engine cover seal. They claimed the engine would need to be removed and to do that, the entire front suspension would need to also be removed. They claim that this is a well known problem for this version of the V6 and is common in other models."

"Factory recall. One day service."

"The same problem that so many cars had - the Takata airbag recall."

"Occupant classification error after air bag replacement from Lexus. Lexus would not fix it. I had to buy a used passenger seat!"

"Rubber boot on right side drive shaft was leaking grease."
